What's not to love about this unforgettable tour?

Start your day with a complimentary pickup via air-conditioned bus from your accommodation doorstep, where you will then be welcomed by the friendly crew guiding the day's journey.

Listen in or chill out during the drive down the coast as you find out about what you're about to experience and hear some fabulous facts about the local area.

Boarding of the super stable, fast and comfortable 55ft sailing catamaran WINDCHEETAH, is an experience in itself; having been introduced by Chris Hemsworth in the 2016 International Tourism Australia campaign.

WINDCHEETAH is new to Ningaloo and the team can’t wait to share a day out on Ningaloo Reef swimming with the biggest fish in the ocean with you onboard this magnificent catamaran!

Having recently undergone an extensive refit to deck her out with all the equipment necessary to make her the perfect platform for an amazing day on the water, WINDCHEETAH is extremely stable and a great choice for those slightly prone to motion sickness.

Featuring several different areas for viewing wildlife, entering the water and generally just hanging out WINDCHEETAH - this is guaranteed to be one of the highlights of your day (not to take away from the star of the show….the whale shark!)

Meet the rest of your crew for the day and set off in comfort. The team behind the tour will take exceptional care of you, fit you for your fins, masks and wetsuits and ensure everybody is 100% at ease, feeling confident and excited!

Warm up by dropping into one of the most beautiful reefs in the world at the first snorkel site and discover an abundance of coral, tropical fish, turtles and potentially even manta rays or dugongs. The guides will be right there with you in the water to steer you in the right direction, and to pay special attention to any modest swimmers.

Feel free to grab a floating noodle should you feel like the extra bit of flotation!

While you’re busy exploring the reef, the spotter plane has already departed and is searching for our first whale shark cruising nearby.

With a crew that shares a passion for the ocean (it’s their life!), feel free to ask questions throughout the day as many have marine science backgrounds.

When a whale shark has been spotted, it’s all systems go! The skipper will head the boat towards the whale shark’s location where you will then be split into two groups. Now is the time to prepare for your jump into the crystal clear waters of the Ningaloo…as you're about to get up close and personal with the world's biggest fish!

Experience wonder and marvel at the sheer size, grace and elegance of the biggest fish in the world, with sizes ranging between 4m and 12m...with some having grown as large as 18m.

A professional on board photographer will capture every moment in the water, and above the water, from the very best angle for you to also take home at no extra cost.

All the excitment can be hungry work, so lunch is served as you sail back.

You’ll get yet another chance to pack more into your trip, go snorkeling or make use of the kayaks and paddle boards to surrender those last bits of energy you’ve got stored away.

If you don’t have the energy for more activities, sit back and relax in the famous cargo net for a refreshing tow through the crystal clear waters of the lagoon as you sail back in towards Tantabiddi.

To celebrate a truely magnificent day, kick back and enjoy with a glass of sparkling and a seasonal fruit platter while we the sails are set; and listen to the sounds of the water aginst the hull as you make your way back to the mainland.

Wrap things up with a comfortable cruise right back to the front of your accommodation, having experienced the ultimate day out.
