About Ningaloo

Stretching 160 miles along Australia’s stunning west coast, the Ningaloo Coast is a UNESCO World-Heritage site and houses the largest fringing reef system in the world. This is also the only place on the planet where you can access such a gigantic reef so easily – usually a short swim from the many beaches. From swimming with the giants of the ocean to watching turtle hatchlings right from the beach, it's just a normal day in Ningaloo!

This bucket-list worthy destination has built a name for itself as being one of the few places on Earth where you can swim with the largest fish in the ocean – the Whale Shark. There are several award-winning Ningaloo cruises that will offer you a very up-close and personal experience with these magnificent swimmers. Not just the Whale Sharks, but you can also swim with manta rays, turtles, or even the Cerulean Humpback Whales during their incredible annual migration.

With such close proximity to the water, it’s no wonder that some of the top things to do in Ningaloo include water activities. See the wonders of the reef without getting wet on a glass-bottom boat tour, hop on a powerboat and enjoy a swim with the whale sharks, or hang around with the resident mantas of Coral Bay. The Ningaloo boat tours depart from Exmouth or Coral Bay – choose an experience nearest to your accommodation.

Although the reef and its residents are the stars of the show, no visit to Ningaloo is complete without a scenic hike through Cape Range National Park. Find hiking trails that suit every fitness level. Be one with nature on one of these walking trails and enjoy incredible views of the limestone-walled red canyons against the azure blue waters of the Ningaloo Marine Park. And while you're at it, look out for wallabies, emus, kangaroos, echidnas and other wildlife that call this region home!
