Each person was provided with a bottle of water. Towels weren't necessary because our swimsuits dried during the boat ride.
The guide didn't give detailed explanations about each island, but that actually allowed us to relax and not think about anything. We saw lots of fish, and the kids were thrilled to spot Nemo. Lunch was served in a large container with cooked food that we shared. It was delicious.
Pick-up and drop-off starts at 3 AM. The journey is quite bumpy, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication. We arrive around 6 AM to draw a number (so the car is driving very fast). You can leave your belongings in the car. You can rent a GoPro on-site; someone will guide you. Give the GoPro to the boatman in the water, and they will film it for you. The rental only cost 550 pesos. Most importantly, the whale sharks are huge, very close, and incredibly moving. I highly recommend participating! The waterfall is also beautiful and great for photos. If the trip goes smoothly, we'll return to the city around 1 PM.
I booked a pick-up and drop-off service at my hotel. The driver arrived 10 minutes early, was helpful with my luggage, and the ride to the pier was smooth and successful. Highly recommended! 👍
