6 Days, 5 Nights

Visit Australia’s sunniest capital city and you’ll experience more than just amazing sunsets over the ocean.

Perth effortlessly blends urban cool with raw natural beauty and makes the perfect base for your unique Western Australian experience. Bustling with new bars, restaurants, shopping and cultural spaces, Perth is also home to Kings Park—one of the world’s largest inner city parks, beautiful wineries, and stunning beaches where you can even swim with wild dolphins.

It’s very rare for whale sharks to come so close to shore, but they visit Ningaloo every year between March and July, just in time for coral spawning. To get close to the action, fly to Learmonth, or drive to Coral Bay or Exmouth from Perth and join a whale shark swimming tour. In a small group of up to 10 swimmers, you’ll enjoy a magical moment with these amazing mammals, marveling at their immensity, grace and distinctive spots and stripes.

Whale sharks can grow up to 52.6 feet with a mouth over four feet wide, designed to scoop up plankton and krill. Lucky for us humans, they are filter feeders and completely harmless.
