We are One with the Ocean

5.00I wish I could remember everyone’s name on the boat, including the crew Lilly,Brett Cole. and Karen in the office who made this trip happen after the cyclone threatened to obliterate this part of my trip.It was a truly magnificent experience. The reef they brought us to as q first stop was full of life (whereas the reefs on coral Bay offshore have been whited out after last year‘s heat wave). It was delightful to swim with a gray reef sharks and be amazed by the proliferation of beautiful coral, that I do not see inthe Florida keys ..I love the way the crew was as excited as they passengers to spot something unusual, including our one and only whale shark.. who was playing with us for much of the day … as soon as we got close he decided to dive deep. I personally did get to swim with the whale shark, and though brief it will be an experience I will live with forever. I came all the way across the world to do this - it’s was one of my many highlights while in Australia for three months -it’s a beautiful country with kind adventurous people,Aussie’s believe in conserving their environment and protecting oceans, and land -the national parks, including the Ningaloo Reef were pristine. Thank you so much to the crew and captain and the Aboriginal nation. My personal Best, Helen.
Brilliant life changing experience

5.00Fantastic. Had the best day out. The staff were so supportive, informative and the best fun. Had two great close encounters that were life changing. I also loved the reef snorkelling. I couldn't believe the range of sea life on the reef. Thanks guys. Love your respect for the ocean as well. The skipper was awesome too. I felt totally safe.

5.00Awesome day on and in the water alongside manta rays, humpback whales, dolphins, turtles, sharks and loads more. We spent significant amounts of time swimming with the manga rays and the group was kept to ~20 people and managed well. Knowledgeable guides who went out of their way to ensure we saw as much marine life as possible. Naomi, Britt and Sophie were absolute legends whether guiding us in the water, sharing their marine knowledge, photographing the experience, or feeding us - they worked all day to make it an unforgettable day. 🧜🏼♀️🌊🐬🐳🐠
