After yesterdays fantastic Whale Shark Interaction; today has been especially dissapointing; we didn’t get to swim with a Whals Shark today.
The spotter plane saw quite a few but the sharks wouldn’t stay at the surface, whenever the boats got close to them - or one of our ’spotters’ jumped in the water; the sharks would dive.
Who knows why? There could be several reasons; however the fact that the Whale Shark is a fish and only comes to the surface to feed means we are relying on them to stay up for the swims.
Never mind I guess this is nature at it’s best; hopefully we’ll have better luck tomorrow!
WOW - What a fantastic start to the Whale Shark season in Exmouth, Western Australia~!
I am officially BANNED from the very first tour - history has proven that when I am on the first tour; we don’t see a shark - so I have been unanimously voted off the boat for the very first tour!
Today we swam with a gorgeous 3 and a half metre Whale Shark; who seemed to be as interested in us as we were in him. He turned often to check the punters out and circled the groups when they were in the water; thrilling our swimmers to no end!
We were also fortunate enough to see some majestic Manta Rays; unfortunately we couldn’t swim with them as they were too close the reef and it wasn’t safe, but they were fantastic to watch!
We have so many pre-bookings for April - with many days already completely booked out; so if you’re coming to swim with these unreal fish - best be booking ahead to secure your seat :)
