As a blanket statement, it is never advisable to poke a giant. Why would anyone want to jump into an environment that is not their own and anger a creature triple their size. A better idea would be to become invisible and let the giant do its thing without getting in its way.

Up Close And Personal With A Fish 4x My Size
This is exactly the approach that Kitu Kiblu is taking with the giants of our oceans, the whale sharks. Rather than letting their encounters interfere with the whale sharks, putting both the animals and the humans in danger, this outfit has chosen a more organic way to go about things.
During a whale shark encounter with Kitu Kiblu you can expect a stress-free experience. Instead of rushing the animals, they choose to let the whale sharks swim to you. By not chasing and scaring these fish, you become more approachable. The whale sharks will swim around, eat, and ignore your presence, giving you more time to admire them and their gigantic size.
Kit Kiblu, the responsible whale shark encounter outfit, takes their job seriously, not wanting to be intrusive; and they are encouraging other companies to do the same. It is a mutually beneficial thing, respect the animal and their environment and in return guests will see more whale sharks, in a more relaxed state. Win, win.
A Natural Hideaway
To add to the overall experience, Kitu Kiblu/Magemani is in the process of building several tented lodges where guests can stay, sleeping very close to nature. The Magemani lodges give patrons the opportunity to eat while being entertained by the wild and playful monkeys, fall asleep to the sounds of cicadas and bush babies, and wake early to have an encounter with the largest fish in the ocean.
