It is extremely rare that we don’t see a whale shark (perhaps once a season) but we cannot guarantee it, so we do not refund the tour payment. We always will ensure that you enjoy the rest of the experience. We do offer an optional $20 charge that will guarantee your spot on the whale shark tour on a different date in the rare event that we don’t see a whale shark. You can select the box at check-out.
