Whale sharks in Perth?

Hello people,

I am coming over to Perth at the beginning of March and was wondering what the chances were of capturing a quick swim with this little fella?

Hi Gaz -
The whale sharks are in Exmouth/ Coral Bay on the Ningaloo Reef about 1200km north of Perth from March til July/ August ish but the peak is probably mid April/May - July - I was working up there for the beginning of last season and we didn't start seeing them regularly til about 2-3 April ish but they see more later on in the season,

hope that helps & it really is a fantastic experience to swim with them!

Try Ningaloo Blue ( Exmouth ) - great crew!! ( no bias!)

As most of you know I am an instructor and we teach open water students the basics in confined water. Well I, along with a lot of others, utilize the local pool before going to the bay for the open water component. My little adventure takes place during one of those pool sessions.
