Step aboard your very own Ningaloo charter and discover the reef without the crowds. Swim with the amazing whale sharks and humpback whales, snorkel stunning coral gardens, and enjoy fully secluded beaches.
Take in every breathtaking moment at your own pace, with our experienced crew dedicated entirely to your group.
Your day is carefully planned to maximise every moment, from wildlife spotting to reef swims. We take care of the logistics so you can focus on the experience.
It’s just your group, your crew, and the sparkling blue seas. No crowds, no interruptions.
With our expert crew and spotter plane, you’ll track marine giants like a seasoned pro, making every moment on the water count.
No matter the reason — a milestone, a getaway or just a day of escape — a private charter creates unforgettable memories on the reef.
Our private Exmouth charter follows a carefully planned itinerary that packs the most action into your day on Ningaloo Reef.
Here’s a glimpse of what a day could look like.
We pick you up from your accommodation at a convenient time and transfer you to the boat. As you cruise toward the reef, your crew will share stories about Ningaloo’s unique marine life, Cape Range National Park, and the surrounding coastline.
Kick off your day with a snorkel on the vibrant inner reef, where coral gardens burst with colour and marine life surrounds you at every turn. We’re talking curious turtles, gliding stingrays, and even reef sharks!
Younger kids or less confident swimmers can take it slow with floatation aids and friendly in-water guidance. That way, everyone can join the fun safely.
When the spotter plane spots a whale shark or humpback whale, we make our way to the outer reef. Here, your private group can swim alongside these gentle giants for as long as you like, guided by our expert crew for safety and tips. With multiple swims possible, everyone gets a chance to connect with these incredible creatures at their own pace.
If your group feels like exploring even further, there’s plenty of extra magic waiting for you:
Even the funnest adventures need a breather. Pause for morning tea, a buffet lunch and afternoon snacks, all freshly prepared onboard as you soak in the reef views. With a private Ningaloo charter, the day is yours—enjoy it at your own pace!
When your adventure winds down, the crew will return you to Exmouth, giving you one last chance to admire the Ningaloo coastline before your private charter ends.
The essentials — and then some. While other tours might offer a handful of experiences, we’re the only operator that truly delivers it all! As a fully bespoke Exmouth charter, we aim to give your group the most memorable, value-packed day on Ningaloo Reef. Full Terms and Conditions apply.

Charters generally run for a full day, roughly 7–8 hours, allowing ample time for multiple reef stops, whale shark encounters, and scenic cruising at your own pace.
Whale shark sightings can’t be promised, but our dedicated spotter plane actively searches for them. And our experienced crew positions your group for the best possible encounters.
Yes, children are welcome! Extra in-water support, such as buoyancy aids, snorkel tuition and hand-holding, is provided to provide a safe and enjoyable experience.
No, not at all. While basic swimming ability is helpful, our crew provides safety support including flotation devices and assistance in the water so that everyone can participate confidently.
