About
This tour allows you to immerse yourself in nature and culture and feel the energy of this world class park to where the red sand from the deserts kisses the beautiful turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. Learn why visitors from all across the planet want to travel here and expect the unexpected and we are delighted to teach you how. Even before Shark Bay became a World Heritage Area, local Nhanda and Malgana Aboriginal people have been looking after this place. Learn about the amazing conservation work being done today to restore the balance of nature and we take you to find any number of native species and discover firsthand why this place is a World Heritage Site. We visit fantastic look outs like Skipjack Point, Point Peron where the Eastern Bay meets the Western Bay plus many other scenic locations which provide breathtaking views across the beautiful bays. Look for turtles, rays, sharks, dugongs, manta rays, birds, and much more. We also look for the amazing Thorny Devil lizard, the elusive Echidna, Kangaroos, Snakes and other rare and endangered wildlife.
Tours are fully catered and enjoy a delicious and healthy home-style catering on the beach or other spectacular locations across this picturesque National Park and even enjoy a refreshing snorkel and swim in one the many sheltered bays, if whether permits.
