Your walking time today will be approximately 3.2 km on a Grade 3 to 4 (moderate - challenging) track. The path has some eroded sections, moderate slopes and loose stones that can be slippery.

Your walking time today will be approximately 9.5 km or 6 hours on a Grade 5 (difficult) trail. Some parts of the trail require a high level of fitness and experience and includes near vertical climbs and scrambles over boulders.

Your walking time today will be approximately 3 km or 3.5 hours on Grade 3 to 5 (difficult) trails. There may be some challenging sections, including a series of metal ladders to the gorge floor, wading through cold pools, negotiating rock ledges on the gorge walls and clambering through stony creek beds. When the gorge dramatically narrows, you’ll need a degree of flexibility and nerve by doing the ‘spider walk’ (where you stretch your arms and legs out to straddle the gap and move along the walls).

Your travel time today will be approximately 6 hours.

You will have the opportunity to do a bit of snorkelling on the days we are in Exmouth. You may bring your own but if you would like to hire them you can do this via the Milyering Visitor Centre. It's currently $12 for the day for a full set (mask, snorkel and flippers), or $15 for an overnight hire. A $50 deposit is required. Credit card facilities only - they don't accept cash.

It’s very important that you pre-book any whale shark experiences, as these can sell out far in advance. You can book with us or your booking agent at the time of booking. If you would rather wait and try to get a better price by booking this locally on the ground, you can, but keep in mind that this is a popular activity and places are limited.

Whale sharks visit the region between mid-March and mid-September only, so please make sure you schedule your trip accordingly if you would like to include this experience in your trip. Please remember that whale sharks are big fish and as such can only be found in deep water. The tour will go beyond the reef to a depth where you won't be able to see the sea floor. To swim with the Whale Sharks all participants must be physically fit and capable of pulling themselves up and out of the water. All participants must be confident swimming in the ocean and be able to swim 200m unassisted. The crew on board are the experts and listening to them will ensure your safety. The tour operator has the discretion to prohibit individuals from entering the water if they are deemed a safety risk to themselves or are clearly incapable of looking after their well-being while in the water.
