This is the second Experience I have undertaken with Kings.
I did the Whale Shark experience 9 years ago with my Brother when he had terminal Cancer, Bill made sure we had a wonderful experience then and the crew ensured that it was a memorable experience for everyone.
My brother has since passed away, but Exmouth and Kings are now great memories for me to revisit.
I choose Kings for their Whaleshark and Humpback Whale Eco Tour for my honeymoon for this trip and it was just as memorable and amazing. We didn't get to see any Whale Sharks as it was a bit out of season, but Bill and the Crew made sure we found all kinds of wildlife to enjoy swimming with. The Crew provided a sumptuous morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea.
The Crew were knowledgeable about Marine Life, Exmouth Town history, and were very engaging with the young children on the tour (one girl seemed to make best friends with one of the Crew and didn't want to leave 😊).
The Crew were also very aware and noticed when I and a few others were struggling with the current at a particular snorkeling location, so rather than continuing to struggle, gathered us together for a drift snorkel and signaled to the Magellan to collect us at the other end of the drift.
The only criticism I have of this experience is that due to the weather, We had to reschedule the experience from one day to the next, however Kings obviously don't control the weather and didn't want to make the experience uncomfortable for us, so they provided alternative booking options a few days out, as well as offering for other operators to take us out on the scheduled day or a complete refund.
We had an excellent time, swam with humpback whales- an unforgettable experience, saw a multitude of sea life - Tiger Sharks, Eagle Rays, Turtles, Dolphins, Squid and all manner of reef fish.
We'll be returning in a few years when my Daughter is old enough for the experience and it will be just...

King's Reef Whale Shark Day Trip exceeded all my expectations! From start to finish, it was an incredible experience. The staff were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly friendly, making the whole day enjoyable and stress-free.
The trip started with a thorough briefing about whale sharks and safety protocols, which reassured us all. Once out on the water, the crew did an excellent job of spotting and guiding us to the whale sharks. Seeing these majestic creatures up close was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and absolutely mesmerizing.
The equipment provided was top-notch and well-maintained. We were given plenty of time to swim and observe the whale sharks while ensuring we respected their space and natural behavior. The guides were very attentive and ensured everyone had a memorable encounter.
The boat was clean and comfortable, with plenty of refreshments and snacks to keep us energized throughout the day. The lunch provided was delicious and catered to various dietary preferences.
I particularly appreciated the crew's emphasis on marine conservation and responsible tourism. They shared valuable insights about the local ecosystem and the importance of protecting it, which added an educational aspect to the trip.
Overall, I can't recommend King's Reef Whale Shark Day Trip enough for anyone looking to have an awe-inspiring and unforgettable experience. Five stars all...
Read moreWe got picked up by the bus from our caravan park and greeted by Kieran and Sophie who gave an up beat commentary on the way to boat ramp pointing out the highs and the history of Exmouth There was a shot transfer to the Magellan by tender We were impressed by the professional staff who were efficient but at the same time very friendly and ensured everyone had an enjoyable experience while on board Our captain Dane and Sophie gave a short safety and operational brief and we were under way to our first snorkel and check that our equipment was working as needed and nothing need adjustment or replacement All gear was supplied wetsuit goggles, snorkel and flippers All the staff were extremely attentive and helpful for this process Every time we got into the water we had a staff member guiding us to the best possible view of the reef and were very happy to show us the reef or fauna and really went above and beyond to give us the best chance of seeing some whales Only thing and regardless of who you go with you are in the lap of the gods as to what you see But with a spotter plane on your side you have the best chances And our captain had lots of experience and was also in constant contact with the pilot of the plane to give us the best odds If you want a fantastic day and want the best chance of seeing some really special moments I couldn’t recommend this...
