Underwater Photography: Stingless Jellyfish at Jellyfish Sanctuary, Sohoton Cove, Surigao del Norte

Stingless Jellyfish

I'M IN AWE!

In some part of Sohoton Cove, a Jellyfish Sanctuary is a must go destination. You will be able to swim and even touch the jellyfishes that live in the lagoon. Worry not, as these lovely creatures are stingless and very safe to be near with. Their season is during summer from March to end of May, and since we visited the place in the 1st week of July, we only saw few of them. Nonetheless, our travel to go to this place is not put in vain as the lagoon is very beautiful. And yes! I was able to see, touched and swam with a Jellyfish and captured it in my camera too!

A close encounter

Honestly, I'm afraid of jellyfishes as I have read a couple of news and reports of how dangerous they are. Unexpectedly, as there are bad jellyfishes, there are good too and we Filipinos should be proud of as their Sanctuary is located in the Philippines.

Touch and Swim With Them But Let Them Live

They may let you encounter these lovely creatures but please do not hurt them. All tourist must keep quiet and as much as possible to avoid killing them. Taking them out of the water is not allowed too. Be a responsible and caring tourist!

ALL PHOTOS ARE MINE.

Camera used: GoPro Hero 4 Silver
