Massive sardine invasion is a ‘shocking’ sight for beachgoers

An enormous school of sardines was a socking sight for beachgoers along the shores of the Philippines last month.

Many of the locals were seen scooping up the tiny, slippery fish while others looked on in disbelief.

Two videos of the incredible sightings were posted on WooGlobe’s YouTube channel, one by Frederick, the other by Diane.

"During a family gathering at a private resort, we were shocked to see such a large swarm of small fish on the shore," Frederick told WooGlobe. "What's funny was that all the guests were too busy enjoying the gift of the sea."

"My husband woke up at 5 a.m. while we were staying at Panagsama Beach in Moalboal, Cebu, Philippines," Diane shared with WooGlobe. "He noticed many people gathered along the shore and asked a local resident why they were there. The local explained that everyone was waiting for the sardine fish."

And they came in abundance, obviously.

Both scenes are pretty amazing.
