Has anyone been to the ningaloo reef, WA?

Question

what did you think of it? is it environmentally friendly?

Answer 1

You can go there from either Exmouth or Coral Bay which caters for backpackers and theres a nice camping groung there as well, and really is the best place to go from.

It IS one of the most amazing locations ive been to,just recently  swam with the   whalesharks there who come to feed along that part of the reef.it costs heaps to go out on the boat about 300Aud but its a once in a lifetime experience,

Its a long way to drive also,and very isolated,but everything you need is there.You should fly into perth or broome and drive up with friends,it takes a few days either way to get there,but if you plan it its worth going but the whales are only there till from may to end of june if your lucky.have fun.if you email you address I will send some pics of the whales i swam with

Answer 2

Oh yes indeed .it's beautiful . stay at Coral bay and you can snorkel just off the beach . Fantastic sights. or you can take a boat trip. Go around the beach to the right and you can sun bathe naked . around the otherside to the left there is a type of shark that comes in to feed or mate not sure which now but i think they are harmless I wouldn't test that therory out though/.There is an unspoilt wilderness there.

Answer 3

The sharks you can swim with are called Whale Sharks.
