Overview

If you've ever wanted to swim alongside whale sharks, consider Ningaloo Reef for your next holiday. The UNESCO World Heritage-listed reef boasts exotic fish, dolphins, manta rays, turtles, migrating humpback whales and, of course, whale sharks. Situated by the remote resort town of Exmouth, this idyllic location is the ideal spot for coastal adventures — you just have to factor in the travel time.

One way to see the beauty of Ningaloo is on a Ningaloo Whale Shark Swim Tour. Across a day-long itinerary of cruising the reef, you'll enjoy multiple snorkelling sessions, tasty meals and panoramic views of Cape Range National Park from the ocean. Most excitingly, you'll be jumping into the crystal-clear water and get up close with all the majestic marine life.
