A couple of days ago I got an email I had been looking forward too. Remember on Ko Tao we got to see a Whale Shark on my last day of Open Water Certification? Well Stephanie on the boat had an underwater camera and was kind enough to email the photos!!!

This was the first thing I saw as I approached. This massive tail in the water. I couldn’t stop thinking “Jaws, Jaws, your swimming towards Jaws himself!”. (note: Whale Sharks are harmless, toothless fish that will not even try to taste you)

Then I see it’s back! Wow! Look at those markings!

And finally I get a good look at the front!

The photos don’t show the shear number of snorkelers present

It’s more likely he will eat it than the other way around

Anyone who could dive did!

This is probably the best shot of them all! Look at it’s back!

Just to be clear and fair, these were not my photos.
