Oslob guarantees sightings because the sharks are fed, which many divers feel changes their natural behaviour. If you want a wild encounter, consider a seasonal trip to Donsol (Sorsogon) where they are not fed, or go diving at Malapascua for thresher sharks instead. If you do visit Oslob, keep your distance and never touch them.
