Have you ever dreamed of swimming with Whalesharks? Get on this 3-day adventure, open for both private charters and shared trips. The perfect way of exploring the waters of the Saleh Bay in Sumbawa and getting up close with these gentle giants.
Whale sharks are the biggest fish in the ocean, and you won’t believe how huge they are until you’re swimming right next to one! These gentle giants are one of the ocean’s greatest mysteries. They’re always on the move and often dive as deep as 2 kilometers. We still have a lot to learn about their lives and how they breed. Amazingly, they can live to be over 100 years old, which is pretty incredible for such a massive creature!
The Boat
The boat is designed with comfort and convenience in mind, ensuring you have an unforgettable experience. The boat can accommodate up to 8 people. With 2 cozy cabins, each cabin is equipped with 4 bunk beds providing a restful place to relax after a day of exploration.
Imagine jumping into crystal-clear waters and swimming alongside the gentle giants of the ocean. It’s an experience like no other! Their experienced crew ensures a safe and enjoyable experience, providing guidance and support throughout your trip.
