I was a little concerned myself at first. Once in the water with them the feeling was wonder and respect.

Swimming with the whale sharks was awe inspiring but not dangerous for humans. Whale sharks are filter feeders and only eat tiny organisms like plankton. I appreciate your taking the time to visit and comment.

Swimming with whale sharks is safe for humans and hopefully the whale sharks. Check out this post for a better idea of the experience.

I can’t guarantee no other sharks. People swim with sharks in the ocean all the time.
People don’t realize it, but the sharks are very aware.
