Djibouti is far from the beaten track for most scuba divers but if it is whalesharks you want to see, there is no place better. Whilst most whaleshark encounters are close to shore, we stingily recommend a liveaboard here so you can escape the crowds of daily boat snorkelers and focus on these stunning plankton eating sharks.
There is no doubt as to what the main attraction is here. Each and every year whale sharks cruise into Djibouti's waters, stopping off on their annual migrations. If you have not yet managed to see these formidable beauties or just want to see them again then our Djibouti Liveaboards is the trip for you.This cruise is suitable for divers, snorkelers and free divers.
