Feel spellbound as you swim alongside marvellous humpback whales on their annual migration through Ningaloo Reef. In small groups, you'll plunge into the underwater world and share the ocean with these inquisitive mammals, as well as a myriad of other colourful marine life.
Want to experience something magical? Every year over 30,000 humpback whales pass through the Ningaloo Reef on their migratory journey, and you'll have the privilege to swim alongside these mammals during this full day safari. Your adventure begins with a snorkel at a stunning reef location, where you may encounter an array of marine life including turtles, reef sharks, stingrays and fish amidst colourful coral gardens. Then, the vessel will head out into the open ocean to view the beautiful humpback whales on their migratory route. Separated into groups of seven, you'll enter the water with two crew members at a safe distance from the whale's path. Each interaction is on the whale's terms - they may be curious and come say hello or may simply pass by. Either way, you'll feel humbled to share the waters with these majestic creatures. After the swim, head back on board and enjoy lunch and a final snorkel on the reef. You'll be treated to a glass of champagne and fruit platter on return.
Please allow 8-9 hours for this experience. The tour duration depends on how quickly and how far whales can be found.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
