Is it unethical? That’s not for me to say. I can tell you it employs a LOT of people and none of the whale sharks I saw appeared injured or distressed. If they were in an enclosed space it may be a different matter but they are free to come and go as they please. That said it appeared well organized when we went. We arrived there at about 8 and it wasn’t at all the nightmare I’d read about during the busy season. We were issued the warnings about staying away from them, no suntan lotion etc. got our required life jackets and were on a boat in minutes. You can see them fine from the boat even if you don’t go in the water. Someone I was with can’t swim and she was happy with what she saw. The water was a bit rough so everyone on our boat just hung onto the pontoons while snorkeling. You have 30 mins. That was my only opportunity to see a whale shark and I’m happy I went.

The whole experience was amazing seeing the giants of the sea just infront of you. Looking forward to be back amd swim with them again soon.

Our whale shark watching experience was both awe-inspiring and bittersweet. While the time in the water with these magnificent creatures was just right, it was disheartening to see how they’re kept near the shore with feeding practices. Even more concerning, some guests displayed little respect, harassing the gentle giants. These issues highlight the need for better conservation efforts and stricter guidelines to protect these incredible animals. But overal a good experienxe for both young and adults.
