  • Spot dolphins, turtles and dugongs

  • Cruise the waters of Ningaloo Reef

  • Keep watch for rays and marine life

  • Watch migrating humpback whales up close

  • Ride aboard an intimate 10m Naiad vessel

Discover the migrating humpback whales of Ningaloo Reef on a two hours and 30 minutes whale watching cruise from Coral Bay, one of Western Australia's most spectacular stretches of coast. Aboard a comfortable 10m Naiad that sits low to the water, you will enjoy an intimate, close to the surface view as these giants make their way along the reef.

With smaller group sizes and local family operators who know these waters inside out, every tour is personal, relaxed and full of insight into the whales behaviours and the Ningaloo ecosystem. Keep your eyes on the water for dolphins, turtles, dugongs, rays and the other marine life that call this reef home, with no two tours ever quite the same. Your friendly crew are passionate about sharing the beauty and wildlife of Ningaloo, pointing out each sighting and the stories behind it. With a safety briefing before you set off and time out on Coral Bay's southern coastline, it is a wonderful way to experience one of Australia's great marine wonders.
