Diving

Explore the Wonders of Ningaloo Reef

There are four terms to describe diving at Ningaloo: Big stuff, tons of fish, unique creatures & critters and pristine sites!

To tell you the truth - diving at Ningaloo Reef is not about 40 metres visibility in clear waters, nor is it about endless coral gardens bursting in colours you can't even dream of.
Ningaloo Reef is about the diversity and the sheer number of marine life you WILL encounter! You are most likely to see some weird and rare stuff at the reefs around here than anywhere else. The abundance of food in the rich waters of Ningaloo attracts all sorts of underwater creatures. Being so close to shore and easily accesible makes diving here very attractive - unfortunately this is also Ningaloo's biggest downfall. Big swell can ruin visibility for days; a quick change in weather can stop operators from going out.
If you are prepared to take the challenge, plan a few extra days to allow for bad conditions and you will find exceptional diving at remote, uncrowded and pristine dive sites. Ningaloo Reef is an underwater photographer's paradise.
Exmouth hosts several dive companies which mainly dive at the most famous places listed below. Prices vary from operator to operator and depend on the destination of the dive-tour.
