Whale Shark Snorkel Safari with Coral Bay Eco Tours - Lunch Included

Whale shark season in Coral Bay begins in March and runs through to the end of June. The whale shark is the world's largest fish, which congregates along the Ningaloo Reef - one of the only places on the planet where they appear regularly in large numbers - making it the perfect opportunity to interact with them in their natural environment. This full-day tour begins with a snorkel in the beautiful coral gardens of the Ningaloo Reef where you may encounter turtles, reef sharks, and other colourful fish. After this, you will have morning tea on board, and then make your way out to the open ocean where a spotter plan and drone are used to search for the whale sharks. Once your crew have spotted them and the boat has made its way there, you will take turns in groups at entering the water to swim with these gentle giants. To ensure that the natural habits of the whale sharks remain undisturbed, there will be a 1 hour maximum swimming time with them. After lunch you will head back in towards the reef for another snorkel at a second site, then go on to celebrate your exciting day with champagne and a fruit platter as you head back in towards Coral Bay.
