Photography Package

Every year between the months of March and June, whale sharks linger in the pristine waters of Ningaloo Reef to feed on plankton. Excite at the opportunity to swim with these gigantic creatures 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 outer reef, following the direction of a spotter plane to the whale sharks' location. In groups of 10, you will take turns swimming with the whale sharks, feeling their huge presence as you swim alongside them. To ensure they are not disturbed in their natural habitat, you are permitted only one hour swimming time with them. On the return journey, enjoy your final snorkel at a reef location and celebrate the day with a glass of champagne and fruit platter.

Nice tour - a snorkelling tour

Nicole 22 September 2022

The crew who took the tour was great, there was a photographer there to take photos for you to purchase at the end which was slightly annoying as guests had to make way for him. The snorkelling was good unfortunately did not get to swim with whales but sighted them, the company kindly refunded cost between a snorkelling and whale swim tour.

A bucket list experience Ticked off

Alice 23 April 2021

We went on the Whale Shark tour today could not recommend this company enough. I was very hesitant in booking this as I have weakness to my left side after suffering from a stroke. The entire team looked after me, and ensured I was part of every swim. Special mention goes to Tamlyn and Sophie these girls were amazing. Thank you all for this amazing experience
