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 the plane takes off from Kuala Lumpur to Tawau I think of one of my favourite songs by Australian singer songwriter Cristine Anu 'The monkey and the turtle' ... that is where we are heading, the island of the turtles and the land of the men of the forest, the Orang-Utans of Borneo.
