Swimming with Manta Rays, Coral Bay, Ningaloo Reef

5 Day Ningaloo Escape

5 days exploring the pristine Ningaloo Reef starts as we set sail north winding our way through spectacular dense coral formations that surround Coral Bay; an exhilarating beginning to your adventure.

Sailing via Batemans Bay, home to a population of majestic Manta Rays, there will be plenty of opportunities to view Turtles, Dolphins, Dugongs, Whales (seasonal) without even getting in the water!  Then just imagine the thrill of what you may discover when you put on a mask, snorkel and fins!

We visit the historical ruins of Norwegian Bay whaling station and hear tragic tales of the many shipwrecks that lie on the Ningaloo Reef, we will also get an opportunity to snorkel on one of these historic shipwrecks.

Sailing over 70km of pristine and remote reef between Coral Bay and Norwegian Bay, all within the protected waters of the Ningaloo Reef, there are an abundance of snorkelling and kayaking opportunities available along with stunning secluded beaches to explore.

3 Day ‘Coral Garden Spectacular’ Tour 

Join us on a journey south to some of the most remote areas of the Ningaloo Reef.  We'll take you to the best places to snorkel and dive, surrounding you with pristine corals and an abundance of marine life.

Our destination is the beautiful Sandy Point and Pelican Point Sanctuary.  A perfect place to explore the shallow reef lagoons either by kayak or you can experience it by donning a mask, snorkel and fins. Enjoy walking along sparkling white beaches and viewing Turtles in their natural feeding grounds.  Dugongs can also be seen on occasions grazing on seagrass beds and inquisitive dolphins can often be seen chasing fish throughout the clear water.

Between June and November, Humpback Whales are a common site on the outer reef as they make their way north on their annual migration and return south with their calves for the summer.
