We answer
your questions:

Is seeing whale sharks guaranteed?

We can’t guarantee a 100% chance of seeing the sharks. Whale sharks are wild animals, and sightings cannot be guaranteed

What’s the difference between the GoPro footage included in the tour and the professional videographer service?

If you’re on a shared boat, there will be other tourists on board, and the filming will be shared among everyone. This means the footage will include other people and will mostly be group shots.
A personal videographer, on the other hand, films only you.
If you’re on a private boat, a personal videographer is included by default and will film only you

What activities are available on Sumbawa Island?

We provide a carefully curated list of trusted and handpicked locations

Is it dangerous to swim with whale sharks?

Whale sharks feed exclusively on plankton and other tiny ocean organisms. They have a narrow throat and no teeth. However, it’s not recommended to swim too close or touch the shark, as it may accidentally hit you with its fin. Before the swim, a guide will give you a safety briefing
