In Turquoise Waters
This is a top pick! Monday morning we had a bit of a sleep in, considering the time Ian had come in at and his recent tough schedule. But when we got up we realized that if we wanted to go anywhere today, at this time of day, having missed the bus, we'd have to rent a car. ...

Breakfast for the Whale Sharks
This is a top pick! On Tuesday morning at 7:00 we were piled onto a bus for the experience of a lifetime: snorkelling with the whale sharks! 5-metres plus, blue and white-spotted sharks that, thankfully, are only interested in eating tiny krill, not tiny humans. The day ...
Snorkeling Heaven

Ningaloo Marine Park
This is a top pick! Onto Cape Range National Park, another area abundant with wildlife, we camped at Lakeside, another brilliant snorkelling spot in Ningaloo Reef, and not a bad spot to spend the day. The ex-YOC (Young Ornithologist Club - I was very cool) member ...

Days 207-210
This is a top pick! ... boring Monday the 9th April in the Exmouth Aspen Holiday Park I felt a bit uneasy at the prospect of being here until Saturday. Exmouth at first glance feels like not much spread over a long way. I had two Dutch girls Sanne and Tamara from Nijmegen and a ...

Adventures of Bruce and the Flying Whale Sharks

Swimming with Whalesharks
This is a top pick! ... deal with the seasonal visitors by taking on temporary staff, backpackers mostly, and this seems to be the norm all over Australia. Temporary staff do not get paid much and are generally working so as to replenish the wallet before travelling onward. ...
Exmouth and Ningaloo Reef Marine Park
