About.com tells the world about Ningaloo

November 9th, 2007 by Ningaloo

The word is rapidly spreading around the world about the Ningaloo whale sharks, with recent Internet news coverage giving us a global spotlight.

When we were declared national winner of the PublicityShip Hidden Jewel Awards, we received a publicity campaign as part of our prize.

One of the results was dialogue with the travel editors of the global news site, www.about.com, who were interested to find out more about Ningaloo and the whale sharks.

We thought nothing more of it until yesterday, when we were alerted to this fantastic article!

We’re so delighted to see this kind of global internet coverage for our beautiful region and magnificent whale sharks. The word is rapidly spreading and what’s great about this is we don’t have to advertise. The message gets out there because people are genuinely fascinated by the experience of swimming with the biggest fish in the sea.

Kevin Rudd to speed up World Heritage of the Ningaloo Reef

August 1st, 2007 by Ningaloo

Isn’t it fantastic that our reef has so much attention at the moment?!

Our pristine Ningaloo Reef hosts thousands of different species of fish and coral; the pristine waters need to be seen personally to be believed.

From Exmouth it is possible to access the Ningaloo Reef from the Cape Range National Park. This is located approx 30 min drive from the town centre.

Once within the National Park boundaries; there is an endless coastline of turquoise waters; unspoiled sandy beaches and snorkeling just a stones throw off the shore.

During the summer months the water temp is absolute beautiful (however the scorching summer heat can leave a lot to be desired); it can be a little cooler in the middle of winter; however the clear bright skies and warm sun; still make it a pleasurable experience.

Some of my favourite snorkel spots are: Turquoise Bay, Lakeside & Oyster Stacks. At all 3 locations there is an abundance of beautiful coral, colourful reef fish and the odd white tipped Reef Shark. It truly is an amazing experience!
