Watch our latest Coral Bay Exclusive Tour video below and discover why this full-day adventure has become one of the most popular experiences for visitors wanting to explore the southern Ningaloo Coast.
Why We Created This Tour
Coral Bay is one of the most beautiful destinations on the Ningaloo Coast, yet many visitors staying in Exmouth never experience it. While it's only around 150 kilometres south, planning the drive, knowing where to stop, and making the most of your day can be overwhelming—especially if you're visiting the region for the first time.
Coral Bay is also a very popular holiday destination, with accommodation often booking out well in advance during peak season. For many travellers, staying in both Exmouth and Coral Bay simply isn't practical. We wanted to create an experience that allows visitors to enjoy the best of both worlds without the hassle of changing accommodation, hiring a car or organising another leg of their holiday.
That's exactly why we created our Coral Bay Exclusive Tour.
Departing from Exmouth, this full-day guided adventure makes it easy to discover the spectacular southern Ningaloo Reef while continuing to base yourself in Exmouth. It also gives you the unique opportunity to experience both the northern Ningaloo Reef around Exmouth and the southern Ningaloo Reef at Coral Bay during the same holiday, showcasing two very different but equally spectacular parts of this World Heritage-listed coastline.
From the moment we collect you in Exmouth until you return at the end of the day, our experienced local guides take care of everything, allowing you to simply relax and enjoy the journey. Along the way, we'll share our knowledge of the incredible landscapes, marine life and unique environment that make the Ningaloo Reef one of Australia's most remarkable natural destinations.
Who Is This Tour Perfect For?
One of the things we love most about the Coral Bay Exclusive Tour is that it's suitable for almost everyone.
Whether you're travelling as a couple, a family, a solo adventurer or a group of friends, the tour has been designed to provide a relaxed, small-group experience that combines stunning scenery, wildlife and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the water.
It's an excellent choice for visitors who:
Want to experience Coral Bay without driving themselves.
Love snorkelling and exploring vibrant coral reefs.
Want the unique experience of cruising aboard Coral Bay's quiet, eco-friendly electric charter boat 'Wirraji'.
Enjoy learning about local wildlife and the Ningaloo Marine Park from experienced local guides.
Prefer small-group eco experiences over large commercial tours.
Want the opportunity to experience both the northern Ningaloo Reef around Exmouth and the southern Ningaloo Reef at Coral Bay during the same holiday.
What You'll Experience Throughout the Day
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive south from Exmouth through the spectacular landscapes of the North West Cape before arriving in the picturesque coastal town of Coral Bay.
Once on the water, you'll cruise across the crystal-clear lagoons and fringing reefs of the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef, where vibrant coral gardens, colourful tropical fish and breathtaking coastal scenery await. To maximise your wildlife encounters, we work alongside a dedicated spotter aircraft that searches the reef from above, helping our skipper locate marine life and make the most of every tour.
One of the highlights of the day is the opportunity to search for Coral Bay's resident population of graceful manta rays. Depending on the conditions and wildlife activity, you may also encounter reef sharks, turtles, dolphins, rays and an incredible diversity of marine life that call this pristine coastline home.
Throughout the experience, our knowledgeable guides share fascinating insights into the Ningaloo Marine Park, its unique wildlife and the delicate ecosystems that make this region one of Australia's most extraordinary natural treasures.
As with all Ocean Eco Adventures experiences, our focus is on providing a premium small-group eco-tour with exceptional customer service, expert local knowledge and unforgettable wildlife encounters in one of the world's most spectacular marine environments.
🌿 A More Peaceful Way to Explore Coral Bay
One of the highlights of our Coral Bay Exclusive Tour is cruising aboard Coral Bay's quiet, eco-friendly electric charter boat 'Wirraji'. Unlike traditional combustion engine powered vessels, the electric boat offers a peaceful way to explore the reef while reducing noise and environmental impact. It's a relaxing experience that allows you to immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the Ningaloo Marine Park while searching for marine wildlife.
