Product Itinerary
Itinerary:
From June to November, an estimated 30,000 humpback whales migrate along the Ningaloo Coast on their way to and from their breeding and birthing grounds in Exmouth Gulf and sheltered waters north as far as the Kimberley.
Your day will begin with the 25-minute transfer from Sal Salis to Tantabiddi Boat Ramp. Once onboard you will be kitted out with a wetsuit and snorkel gear; enjoy morning tea as you motor out of protected waters and into the Indian Ocean.

A spotter plane heads up above the reef to locate these gentle giants. Once found, it will be time to enter the water to see them
swim past. You do not swim after the whales, however you will be past the reef in deeper water, so you must be comfortable in the ocean. They will continually move, so swimming is required during the interaction. You will need to be a confident swimmer, able to snorkel and swim freestyle. The whales are found in the open ocean so you may be swimming in current and swell.
In addition to swimming with humpback whales, the spotter plane will be searching for opportunities to interact with whale sharks, manta rays, turtles, dolphins, dugongs and sea birds. Depending on the day, you may return to the calm waters of Ningaloo Reef for lunch and snorkelling. Return to camp will be in the mid-afternoon.

Please bring: A towel (this is provided by Sal Salis on your arrival day), A few additional layers for use on board as it can get cold in between swims, Hat, sunglasses and other personal items, GoPro and underwater cameras may be used, however poles are not allowed, Seasickness tablets if you’re prone to feeling sick out on the ocean.

The camp has been designed to operate in tune with the fragile environment of Cape Range National Park and as such we abide by strict principles of minimal impact and sustainability. All of our power is solar generated, each en suite bathroom has a natureloo (marketing jargon for state of the art composting loos!), water usage is very carefully managed and no waste material escapes into the surrounding ecosystem. Each room has a fan to ensure the circulation of air in the middle of summer. Native herb soaps and ecologically sound shampoos are provided. The tents are spacious and naturally comfortable – they are not intended to be 5 star hotel rooms in the bush so do not offer TVs, telephones, minibars or other modern appliances.
