Cook Island Aquatic Reserve

Reviewed By K2784KGhelenm

We went to swim with turtles with Waresports Guru. It was an awseome experience even for me who had done very little snorkeling before. Turtles, Eagle Rays, and so many other beautiful sea creatues. Kerrie took us out in the water so we had an experienced local with us. Higly recommended.

Ningaloo Coast World Heritage Area

Reviewed By BDOGNUTZ - Secret Harbour, Australia

Heaps to do at the Ningaloo Coast area , from snorkelling and its just meters off sure , unlike the coral reef in Qland, thoroughly enjoyed Lakeside to do this , just be aware of the good 500m to 700m walk to the prime location to the left . Plenty of fishing , swimming with wale sharks and than you have the canyon . To do sight seeing , hiking and climbing . Will be back . Pretty busy joint even in this COVID times.

Omeo Shipwreck

Reviewed By Grifology70 - Melbourne, Australia

It is a rare thing to see a shipwreck about 10 metres from the shore. Definitely easy to swim to on a calm day. Quite an interesting experience. Do need to be a decent swimmer.

Make sure you go out to the Agincourt Reef and experience snorkelling or scuba diving on one of the treasures on this planet. I would recommend Silversonic for your experience.
