Whale Sharks, Saleh Bay, Labuan Jambu, Sumbawa, Indonesia.
This is a relatively new location for whale shark tourism and only started about 5 years ago with a forced break for a couple of years.
These fisherman previously caught whale sharks, finned them and sold their meat. The tourism venture has changed their understanding of their value as a tourism ‘product’.
Still very much in its infancy with only a couple of boats with maybe 6-8 people on each, it has the potential to explode and be badly exploited as has happened in other parts of the world (eg Oslob in the Philippines). They also started with similar intentions but it is arguably not well regulated and managed.
The Indonesians say they are regulating this new industry however we weren’t given a briefing on what to do and not to do so I am not convinced…
I would say it is still ethical but for how long I couldn’t say….
