Plunge into crystal clear waters and swim with the the worlds biggest fish, whale sharks. This is the opportunity of a lifetime to get up, close and personal with these magnificent marine creatures in the breathtakingly beautiful Ningaloo Reef.
Set in the perpetually sunny north-west coast of Western Australia, Ningaloo is a dream come true for snorkel lovers, eco enthusiasts and adventurists alike. With 260km of fringing coral reef it is one of those idyllic locations where you can walk straight off the white sandy beaches into glistening turquoise waters and find yourself floating above an underwater wonderland. On the morning of your experience, you will be collected from your accommodation and driven to meet the boat and crew. With calm waters on the surface, below is a hive of activity with so much to feast your eyes on. Discover an abundance of coral, tropical fish, turtles, manta rays and dugongs as you cruise along.
When a whale shark has been sighted by plane spotters overhead, it's all systems go! Your skipper will head in the direction of the shark where you will slip back into the waters and swim alongside these enormous, harmless creatures. Their sheer size and gentle nature is mesmerising! A delicious lunch will be served on board as well as a celebratory glass of bubbly and whale shark swimmer certificate. You will have another opportunity to explore the wondrous aquatic playground in the afternoon where you can make use of the kayaks or paddle boards for a totally different vantage point of Ningaloo.

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.
