What an experience! Just amazing. Once in a lifetime opportunity The guides,all staff were brilliant. Helpful, so skilled and taking on a huge responsibility. Highly recommend this trip
Awesome experience. Very well organised including the process of swimming with the whale sharks and ensuring everyone enjoys the experience.
We went on the whale shark swim earlier this week on Tues. It was just my mum & I, as whale sharks are my favourite animal and this was an early birthday gift. We both had an amazing time, the staff were wonderful, kind, highly skilled and educated. They really made sure everyone respected the shark and that all ethical & legal guidelines were followed which I deeply appreciated. I wanted to give a special shoutout to Tash (I believe this is her name), one of the divers who was in the water with us. My mum is in her 50s and whilst she is a confident swimmer, she isn't the most physically fit and so she was a little nervous about being left behind or not being able to participate. Tash stayed with my mum the entire time in the water when we were snorkelling. She was encouraging, patient and kind and made me feel at ease knowing my mum was looked after whilst we were out on the water. My mum managed to do both snorkels and even swum with the beautiful whale shark. At no point was she made to feel ashamed or embarrassed for needing help which I appreciate so much. There were pool noodles on board for her to use for extra support as whilst it was a beautiful sunny day, the waves/current was a little strong when we were drift snorkelling. We both had a wonderful time, this was our first time in Exmouth & we are definitely going to be back. We highly recommend Ningaloo Blue. Thank you to the staff for the wonderful day.
Excellent day - well rehearsed and great lunch provided - multiple swims with three different whale sharks- saw a manta ray and dugongs on the way back to the inner reef all on a background of breeching humpback whales …… photos and video well worth it - Thank you for a wonderful experience!
An amazing tour where we swam with whale sharks and a mantaray and also saw a family of dugongs. After that we snorkled and was amazed by the abundance of wild life. The staff were friendly, professional and couldn’t do enough for us. Morning tea and lunch on board meant you never went hungry and a final gals of bubbles at the end. An amazing day and well worth the cost.
It is worth every dollar. The staff were exceptional, the equipment-excellent quality, but most importantly the experience was a life time of fantastic memories.
We had an excellent day with Ningaloo Blue Swimming with the Whale Sharks. The experience exceeded our expectations. The Team of Skipper Brad, Deck Hand Fin, Photographer Miesa and Snorkel Guides Tash and Lucy were fantastic. They were welcoming and helpful and full of great information. The day ran smoothly from start to finish. We loved the chosen snorkel spots and we were very fortunate to see 3 different Whale Sharks, one of them circling and feeding during our swim. I highly recommend this tour, it is worth every cent for the once in a lifetime experience of swimming with whale sharks and Ningaloo Blue are a great company.
Amazing experience, really well organised, had a brilliant day out. Once in a life time experience, would highly recommend!
Once in a lifetime experience! The crew were fantastic and knowledgeable. The videographer took awesome photos and video! The lunch they provided was good. We highly recommend Ningaloo Blue Dive for this experience.
