&nbsp;

Western Australia&#39;s Ningaloo Reef is a world-renowned marine wonderland and&nbsp;the world&#39;s largest and most accessible fringing reef.&nbsp;It hosts an incredible diversity of tropical &amp; temperate marine flora &amp; fauna.

&nbsp;

The&nbsp;Humpback whales migrate through Coral Bay from June to October every year.&nbsp;Visit these&nbsp;incredible and inquisitive&nbsp;mammals in their natural environment playing, tail-slapping, breaching, waving and slapping massive&nbsp;pectoral fins, rolling&nbsp;and even sleeping!&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Because the local waters are a safe&nbsp;haven for migrating whales,&nbsp;the crew regularly&nbsp;see resting mothers and calves as they frolic in the calm waters of Bateman&nbsp;Bay.&nbsp;Not only&nbsp;can you see the iconic Humpback whales, but&nbsp;you&#39;ll also often&nbsp;encounter many other marine animals like turtles, dolphins, dugongs and other whale species such as Minkes,&nbsp;Southern rights, even Orca&#39;s throughout the trip.

&nbsp;

The friendly and knowledgeable crew will look after you throughout this 3 hr cruise,&nbsp;offering information about the Ningaloo Reef and its marine life.

&nbsp;

Enjoy a glass of complimentary sparkling wine and finger food; however, you&#39;re also welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks.

The Operator does not guarantee wildlife sightings or interactions on any tour at any time. Wildlife is, by its very nature, &#39;wild&#39; and marine life exists without constraints on their behaviour, therefore no guarantee of sightings can be provided.&nbsp;
