The tour begins at the Coral Bay Ecotours office, followed by a short bus transfer to the jetty to board the vessel. Enjoy 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, begin your journey to the outer reef. The spotter plane will be out searching for whale sharks and advising of any other exciting marine life spotted along the way! Coral Bay Ecotours will do their best to allow you to experience as much wildlife as possible during the tour. Once the spotter plane has found a whale shark, the boat will make its' way there.
Guests will be split into two groups of 10 and take turns to swim with the whale shark. To ensure that they don’t disturb the natural habitat, swimmers are allowed a maximum one hour of swimming time with the whale shark.
You will stop along the way home for a second reef snorkel at a different site. To finish the day, celebrate with a glass of champagne!
