Oslob, Cebu Island
Located in the southern part of Cebu Island, Oslob is a world-famous destination known as the “sea where you can swim with whale sharks.” Experiencing a peaceful whale shark, over 10 meters in length, in the crystal-clear waters is truly a once-in-a-lifetime encounter. The early morning tours offer a rare opportunity to witness the harmony between nature and the local fishermen who protect it. In addition to diving and snorkeling, nearby waterfalls and historic churches make Oslob one of the highlights of southern Cebu, attracting travelers from around the world.
Experience the World’s Largest Fish Up Close
In Oslob, you can experience the unforgettable thrill of encountering the world’s largest fish, the whale shark. Seeing its massive yet graceful body—over 10 meters long—swimming peacefully just a few meters away is a memory that will last a lifetime. Its calm presence beneath the water inspires awe rather than fear, filling you with wonder and emotion. Bathed in sunlight and surrounded by crystal-clear blue water, the moment you share with this gentle giant is a truly special connection with nature itself.
Day Tours Are the Standard
Oslob in southern Cebu is a highly popular spot where you can enjoy whale shark watching on a day trip. MSU’s Oslob day tour is especially loved for its flexibility—you can customize your second dive, whether in Moalboal or another dive site in Oslob, according to your preference. In addition to the breathtaking encounter with whale sharks in clear blue waters, the ability to tailor your dive plan to your style makes this tour ideal for both beginners and experienced divers alike.
Japanese-Style Egg Sandwich Breakfast by Eunice
Breakfast and lunch are included in MSU’s Oslob day tour. For breakfast, we serve Eunice’s handmade Japanese-style egg sandwiches—fluffy bread filled with creamy, delicately seasoned egg, perfect for a refreshing start to your day. Seasonal fruits and freshly brewed coffee or tea accompany the meal, allowing you to enjoy a relaxing morning by the seaside before your Oslob adventure.
MSU Staff Support You with Photography & Diving
In Oslob, it is mandatory to have a local guide accompany divers for safety reasons—their role is mainly to ensure that divers do not approach whale sharks too closely or put themselves at risk. However, these guides typically do not assist with photography. That’s why MSU’s diving tours always include a trained staff member who supports guests both on land and underwater, ensuring that your Oslob adventure is beautifully captured in memorable photos. Balancing safety with excitement, we deliver an unforgettable Oslob experience you can treasure forever.
A Completely Private Day Tour
MSU’s Oslob day tour is conducted as a completely private experience. Unless otherwise requested, you won’t be joined by other groups—our dedicated staff will serve only your party throughout the day. Because it’s private, you’ll avoid the usual hassle of stopping by a dive shop first, meeting other guests, and transferring to another van. From pick-up to diving, meals, and photography, you can enjoy every moment entirely at your own pace for a truly exclusive Oslob adventure.
