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 an OWSI you have courses where you have entire classes of struggler's where your students struggle with even the most basic skills (no, that's your snorkel not your reg...), and courses of fish (well, we seem to have finished a little early today...)
