Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Fantastic whaleshark trip with some lovely snorkelling spots run by an amazing and professional team.
Well catered for with snacks and lunch and soft drinks (hot and cold) on tap.

We had the most amazing day with Exmouth Dive Centre. The whole day was so well organised & ran like clockwork. We were so fortunate to find the most chilled, calm whaleshark to swim with & the snkorkeling was unreal. The extra little touches like a glass of bubbles after seeing the whalesharks & having photos of us swimming with the whalesharks included made the whole experience extra special. Huge thanks to the crew for a truly wonderful experience 🙏 ❤️

What an incredible experience! A definite highlight on our around Oz adventure. The staff were so attentive and supportive with our 10yr old daughter and I watched her confidence soar with each jump in with the whale sharks. A bucket list experience for sure!! Thanks team 🐋🙏

Crew were friendly, reassuring and very informative. Great for confident swimmers or beginners. Plenty of yummy food for refuelling between amazing diving/snorkeling sessions

All reports suggest you can’t see whale sharks in October at Exmouth. They are all wrong, this was a fantastic experience we swam with 2 whale sharks, I could not hav swam anymore. We also saw a dolphin while snorkeling along with turtles (doing the tango!) & hump back whales from the boat. Furthermore there less people out there because it was off season and the sea was the warmest you could hope for whalesharks = actually this was the best time of the year to do it!
I will add to above a traveller friend advised me (from speaking to a competitor operator who don’t go in Oct) that only 1 whale shark had been seen from all tours in October with 30 people trying to see them, how wrong he was and how glad I am, I listened to this tour group instead.
Also want to add the staff that worked on this boat were all excellent, they made the whole experience very enjoyable; the spotters helped to make it even more exciting, the photographer was arguably the number 1 ocean photographer in Exmouth & Michael had a great sense of humour, providing lots of advice on various other things we could do in Exmouth.
We are all very glad we did this tour, once in a lifetime and well worth it.

My partner and I recently completed our Open Water PADI Dive Course with Exmouth Dive and truly cannot put into words how incredible our experience was.
Yardena (Jordan) was our instructor and her kind heart and fun attitude made the three days of the course both extremely enjoyable and put all nerves at ease.
In our ocean dives, we saw reef sharks, mantarays, turtles, whales and so much more! Her adventurous spirit allowed our group to safely adventure the ocean whilst learning valuable skills.
Tyler was a fantastic skipper and went out of his way to ensure all of the passengers saw a range of sea life and were comfortable.
We cannot recommend Exmouth Dive again! Will be back!

The staff were excellent in making sure everyone got what they wanted from the trip.
There was a big age range from children (7and 9) to late 60s as well as experience snorkeling. From very experienced to having snorkel only once before.
Some people choose to enjoy the trip and did not enter the water.
The snorkeling spots were great, so many different varieties of fish including sharks. Plus we saw turtles mating.
The best was the whale shark. We had 4 opportunities to see and swim with it.
Amazing animal. The staff were very helpful making sure you saw and could swim with it.
For this trip , you are driven to the site where the boat is anchored offshore and are transported by tender boat.
This is close to turquoise bay.
Can highly recommend.

Exceptional experience and one of the best scuba diving experiences you will ever have The easiest way to describe the dive is what didn’t you go and see

Hi there I have been coming to scuba dive Ningaloo Reef at Exmouth since 1993 and have always gone with EDC and have usually stayed for a week diving flat out living the dream diving non stop because it is such a special part of the world. There have been a few owners over the years and it was always a professional set up hence I stayed loyal and then Mark and Deb took over the company who I used to dive with their company in Fremantle in the mid 2000’s. So some years ago they took over here and have taken the dive company to the next professional level and last Friday the 13th of October 2023 we did 2 dives on Lighthouse Bay and it was one of the best trips I have been on! It’s ok to be 100% honest! The marine life on the way out was awesome with humpbacks 🐋 turtles 🐢 a big olive sea snake 🐍 and this is before we went underwater 😎 Then on the first dive having a big Manta glide right past us at the start of the dive was unbelievable. The whole day was exceptional and what makes it is the professional service from the skipper and crew was second to none 😎👍😎 Definitely was like I said one of the best trips I have done on Ningaloo and that is over 50+ dives over the years coming here. Like to thank the dive crews we had and the captain for the great day and such a great dive boat to go on that’s got all the comfort. Looking forward to coming back soon so a big shout out to a great team as was a great day 😎👍😎🇦🇺

Hi, does the bot provide full wetsuits for late May early June? How has the water temp been this past week? How far off shore do the whaleshark boats typically travel?
Cheryl S

Yes, we did both snorkelling with whale sharks and diving. Late April I was told the water temp was about 27C - it was warm and very comfortable. Not sure how far out the boats go - many KM - it depends where the whale sharks are. Even though it's on the Middle of the ocean you feel safe and well looked after.
