Whale Shark Adventure Tour

Highlights

  • This full day tour starts at 7:20, meeting in the dive shop to check in. We then head down to one of our two fit-for-purpose vessels, each with ample room on the covered main deck to comfortably sit, move around and sight see as we cruise out to the World Heritage listed Ningaloo Reef. Our first stop on the water is a guided snorkel at a beautiful coral garden area on the reef where you get the chance to see up to 250 species of corals and such marine life as colourful fish, sea turtles, stingrays, octopus, cuttlefish, reef sharks, amongst many many others! Once everyone is back aboard you can indulge in some morning tea as we head outside the reef in search for a whale shark! The pilot of our dedicated spotter plane will coordinate directly with our skipper to get you in the best position possible to see a whale shark. If we find a whale shark, you will have a chance to get in the water and swim alongside them. Once back inside the reef, a delicious buffet lunch will be served while we cruise the reef in search of other marine life! In the afternoon we will go for another snorkel at yet another beautiful reef location if time permits.
