After some of the smaller, to the biggest fish in the oceans.
They tell you not to get closer than 4 meters to those amazing animals! Clearly they don't tell the Shark that. Sometimes not so easy to stay out of their way.
Whale sharks in Oslob (Cebu Philippines ).
There are a lot of different opinions on the practice of swimming with them.
I can see both sides of the argument, it is quite a circus in Oslob (though we were there on a quiet day) and some people don't follow the rules.
I like to think that people will be more protective of them after the incredible experience of swimming with these magnificent creatures.
Not so sure.
Here is a link which states both sides : en.rocketnews24.com-2016-03-04-should-you-swim-with-whale...

Thanks for looking
