One of my greatest dream is exploring the waters of Donsol, Sorsogon Philippines. The big gentle creatures (whale sharks) gave me an itch to swim with them and if possible touch them. The big hiccup is that I have a great fear in deep waters. I can swim, not as good but when I see that the seabed is already out of my reach, I just panic! As soon as I overcome my fear and improve my snorkelling skills, I will be visiting this jaw-dropping creatures!

Swimming with them is not impossible to do especially when you’re in the Philippines between November and June and in the months of February to May. Accommodations are available to tourists which varies from resorts to homestays. Just be cautious that most of the establishments accept cash only. The nearest banks and ATM machines are in Legaspi which is about an hour away. Boat rental and guided tours are also available.

This is not the only thing you can do when in Donsol. It has unique night firefly tour and shrimp-catching night tour available all-year round. You can also go for trekking and biking due to the abundance of hilly areas and fields. This is going in my bucket list.
