Join us for a half-day sea kayak and snorkel Turtle Tour adventure in the wildlife-rich Bundegi Sanctuary Zone, in amazing Exmouth Gulf, amongst the northern stretches of World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef. On our Turtle Tour, look for turtles in the shallows from your kayak; rays, baby reef sharks, and birds including osprey are also commonly seen. Take the opportunity to snorkel from your kayak amongst the sheltered coral gardens and enjoy the colorful fish life.

With pickup from your Exmouth accommodation, you are starting 15 minutes before the tour start time on the day. The tour start time varies daily to work around the high tide, giving us the best wildlife viewing opportunities.

You will then take the short 15-minute drive to the tour departure point; along the way, your guide will fill you in on some of the interesting local history and points of interest. Once you arrive at the kayak launch area, you will be kitted out with all the equipment you’ll need, and your guide will give you a paddle and safety briefing.

It’s time to paddle along the coast in this wildlife hotspot, looking for turtles, rays, schools of fish, and baby reef sharks from your kayak. Kayaking is a super fun way to explore Ningaloo! Your guide will be with the group at all times, to point out wildlife, answer any questions, and lend a helping hand when needed.

Depending on the day, you may head out for a snorkel from your kayak shortly after launching; or you may kayak along the coast spotting wildlife, and then take a short break on the beach to stretch the legs, and enjoy a snack before snorkeling. Either way, once you slide into the water to snorkel amongst the coral formations, you’ll be amazed by the incredible marine life at our snorkel site.

Towards the end of the tour you will paddle back to the launch site, and after loading the kayaks back on the trailer, begin the return journey to your accommodation. Your guide will farewell you with some memories to last a lifetime, and a promise to have photos of your kayak and snorkel Turtle Tour adventure uploaded as soon as possible.
