Whale Shark is a gigantic yet harmless shark. They are often referred to as the ocean’s gentle giant. They are often found in tropical oceans, alone. However, large numbers of whale sharks often gather in areas with lots of plankton food. Whale sharks are often used as an indicator of overall ocean and ecosystem health.
Snorkeling Tips with Whale Shark
- Keep noise to a minimum! As you plunge into the water, enter slowly feet-first and do not jump from the boat.
- Touching the skin of the whale sharks poses an alarming threat, so never touch them.
- Always keep your distance from the whale shark by maintaining at least 3 to 4 meters away.
- Do not use strobes! Keep in mind that excessive flash photography can also stress them up and hurt their vision.
