Why We Love This Unique Experience

Embark on an unforgettable adventure with the Whale Shark Safari, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to swim with the largest fish in the sea! From March to June, Coral Bay becomes the meeting point for this incredible experience, where you can witness these gentle giants up close in their natural habitat. The tour commences at the Coral Bay Ecotours office at 7:30 am, followed by a short bus transfer to the jetty to board the vessel.


The adventure begins with a thrilling reef snorkelling experience in the stunning coral gardens, where you will encounter an array of marine life. After a refreshing morning tea, the journey continues to the outer reef where a spotter plane helps locate the majestic whale sharks. Guests will have the chance to swim alongside the whale sharks in small groups, respecting their natural behaviour.


This full-day adventure includes afternoon tea, a photo package, and even a glass of Champagne to celebrate this extraordinary experience. Ideal for thrill-seekers, nature lovers, or anyone craving a unique gift, the Whale Shark Safari promises an unforgettable day of marine exploration and excitement in the crystal-clear waters of Coral Bay.

Your tour begins at 7:30 am at the Coral Bay Ecotours office, followed by a short bus transfer to the jetty to board the vessel. Then we head out for your first reef snorkel experience in the beautiful coral gardens, where you may encounter numerous fish, reef sharks, and other marine species.
After morning tea, we begin our journey to the outer reef. By this time our spotter plane is already searching for our whale sharks and informing us of any other exciting marine life spotted along the way! We will do our best to allow you to experience as much wildlife as possible during our tour. Once our spotter plane has found a whale shark, our boat will make its way there. Guests will be split into 2 groups of 10 and take turns to swim with the whale shark. To ensure that we don’t disturb its natural habits, we are allowed a maximum one hour of swimming time with the whale shark.
We stop along the way home for a second reef snorkel at a different site.
