Description

Swim with Whale Sharks on Ningaloo Reef and be mesmerized by these gentle giants as they make their way along Australia’s West Coast during March/ April to August. You’ll cruise comfortably aboard one of the biggest boats operating from Exmouth on the Ningaloo Reef and the friendly and experienced skipper and crew are always on hand to assist and enhance your Whale Shark swim.
