Recife de Ningaloo de 5 noites Ningaloo Escape de Coral Bay

Sail Ningaloo have created a magical experience, it was an incredible, phenomenally enjoyable 6 days that was so well curated and I absolutely loved it - the crew are amazing, passionate advocates for the Reef and the marine environment generally and are constantly working to ensure you maximise the opportunity and the enjoyment that environment provides. It is evident that a great deal of time and energy has been invested in identifying the best sites for snorkelling and diving activities and adapting the trip to the weather and the tides. The result is a perfect combination of the beautiful environment, the small group size, fantastic food and rare opportunities to enjoy the wonders of the Reef. Our crew, Sandra, Josh and Dom maintained a relaxed but professional approach to managing the trip and encouraged Karen to get her into the water to enjoy the experience as well, as it was not really her comfort zone, but they made sure she could participate and was comfortable doing so. The admin and support team deserve a mention too for their responsiveness in adjusting our original booking and making accommodation arrangements to suit. Overall this was a fantastic experience that I would recommend to everyone.

What an adventure. This is the fourth time that I have toured with Shore Thing. Each time has been different. Sometimes more SCUBA, sometimes more snorkel. And this time, climbing sand dunes and playing on a sand bank in the middle of the water. And after all the activity wonderful food, prepared fresh on board. Single, couple, family, Luke and his team tailor an experience to suit. Small boat cruising allows for all to enjoy.

Had the most incredible experience exploring Ningaloo Reef with Sail Ningaloo. Spending 6 nights out on the water was absolutely amazing and an adventure I’ll never forget. We were surrounded by some of the most beautiful coral and marine life imaginable – sharks, turtles, manta rays, nudibranchs, octopus, eels and so much more. Every day brought something new and exciting. The food was outstanding, the crew were genuinely lovely, and the whole experience was relaxed, friendly and professionally run. It’s definitely a bit of a splurge, but worth every cent. For anyone who loves diving or snorkelling, this is an absolute MUST.

+This was the most amazing experience! The crew were knowledgeable and attentive, the food was first class, and the diving and snorkeling was fantastic!

I did the Ningaloo whale shark swim package, which included the 5 day Sail Ningaloo trip plus a whale shark swim. This was the experience of a lifetime! Both were great. The Sail Ningaloo trip on Shore Thing included 4 dives and multiple snorkels on the beautiful Ningaloo reef. With only 7 passengers (and only 3 divers), the well-equipped 52 foot catamaran was spacious and comfortable. The three expert staff (skipper Dom, chef/guide Josh, and divemaster/guide Sandra all displayed a passion for delivering the best experience, with a focus on discovering the wildlife of the reef. We saw manta rays, turtles, reef sharks, stingrays, octopuses, dolphins, a tiger shark and a leopard shark (plus whalesharks and more (including a reef shark, leopard shark and stingray) on the whaleshark swim with Exmouth Dive and Whalesharks)! Plus large numbers of tropical fish and beautiful coral. A highlight was visiting a grey reef shark cleaning station. Not to mention the sunsets and stars! This is the best way to see Ningaloo Reef, with lots of time in remote spots with usually no one else around. Josh's culinary creations were exquisite! It was a first class, luxury experience. It was nice meeting the other passengers. Many thanks to the crew!

Simply put, it was a truly magical adventure. A true fairyland. The Sail Ningaloo boat and crew were wonderful. The attention to detail, whether the boat itself, the meals, accommodation, snorkling and diving, information and assistance was second to none. It felt more like a family expedition than a formal cruise. The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly. The crew were a well oiled team, obviously comfortable around each other. And the reef itself was amazing. Colourful and healthy looking. The encounters with the fish life, especially the mantas and (unexpectedly while following a turtle) a whale shark was memories which will last forever. And one can't forget the sunsets!!!!! A wonderful experience. And highly recommended.

You can judge a company by the way it treats it customers. These guys went over and beyond to help us. They were a delight to deal with. Especially Cristie who was our life line with excellent communication and kindiness in a difficilt situation. We were due to arrive in Exmouth on the 28 March and join the Shore Thing on 2 April. Unfortnately Cyclone Narelle Cat 4 made landfall at Exmouth, oblierating Learmouth Airport. Qatas cancelled all flight for the forseeable future. We were distaught having waited alongtime and travelled from the UK for this experience. Sail Ningaloo were magificent, taking care of us. We were treated with empathy and koindiness. Highly recommen this team. We will be back for another attempt and we will definately be using Sail Nigaloo . Thank you everyone Karen & Jerry

This trip was incredible. The boat is amazing, the crew even better and the food was off the charts. It is truely one of the best experiences I have ever had. They took to brilliant locations and we saw such a diverse range or sea life.

From booking through to our drop-off, the Sail Ningaloo team provided exceptional service. We have visited Coral Bay/Ningaloo before and expected our 5 night experience on the boat to be great fun - as scuba divers we are always happy to be in the water - but we didn't expect the whole experience to be as superbly curated, organised and delivered at every stage of every day. Our incredibly thoughtful team, Dom, Josh and Sandra, could not have been more obliging and professional. Our dives were well selected for the conditions, all equipment is high quality and well-maintained, site briefings were thorough and the dives were all safe, relaxed and fun. We also snorkeled and would not hesitate to recommend this for non-divers as the reef is so shallow, much of the wildlife and the corals are on display from the surface. We feel privileged to be able to spend time in this pristine environment. We saw almost no other boats and we had every dive site to ourselves. A personal highlight was the grey shark cleaning station where - for 45 minutes - we watched at least 12 grey sharks having their teeth cleaned by wrasse. Amazing. The team also managed my partner's complicated dietary needs- nothing was too much trouble and every meal was excellent. We are telling everyone we know to do this.

This was an exceptional experience. Shore Thing, skippered by Dom, was a great boat - the ensuite double bedroom was as comfortable as I can imagine on a yacht. We had 6 days of snorkelling - 1-3 trips a day to suit - led by Hendrik our underwater guide who had a superb ability to lead us to various habitats with great knowledge and love of the creatures there - I think he is an Octopus whisperer! Josh, the chef's cooking was as good as any top class restaurant.
