4Great day
Had a great day, Kolton (alias Steven) was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable. We were disappointed not to be able to go snorkelling due to weather 😕, but thoroughly enjoyed the Kayaking.
5Great way to spend half a day
Toby and Alan were terrific guides and it felt like they were showing us their favorite places. Saw lots of rays, turtles, fish, shark and coral. Equipment was good and we felt safe the whole time. Would try and do a whole day version of this tour if I go back to Exmounth. Thanks Guys.
5Fun experience
We enjoyed our kayak and snorkelling tour with Alan and Jules. They were well organised, professional and fun to be with and had lots of interesting information to share during the day. The snorkelling spot was excellent and the mangroves with baby rays ad sharks was an amazing experience. We thought the picnic snack was perfect too.
5Amazing Turtle Tour - Kayak and Snorkel
Amazing morning sea kayaking and snorkelling! Nat was an awesome guide, incredibly knowledgeable about Exmouth and its marine life. She was incredibly accommodating for all swimming abilities and made sure we had the best time. We saw turtles, rays and loads of beautiful fish. Definitely recommend as one of the best ways to explore the reef as a beginner snorkeler!

About Exmouth
Exmouth is a small town on the North West Cape of Western Australia and the base for Ningaloo Reef, Cape Range National Park and whale shark swims.
Exmouth stands near the tip of the North West Cape, a dry limestone peninsula that pushes into the Indian Ocean in the far north-west of Western Australia. The town was founded in 1967 to serve a United States Navy communications station, and its wide streets, shops and marina now serve people who come for the reef.
