Swimmming with a Whale Shark is something I’ve always dreamed of doing… just the size, grace and presence of one of these mammoth fish is pretty amazing. Ningaloo Marine Park off Exmouth in Western Australia is probably the best place in Australia to get that opportunity, which I had on a break in early June. I’m bit of a novice in underwater photography, but at least with a whale shark it’s hard to miss. Also got to dive the renowned Exmouth Navy Pier and swim with the Manta Rays at Coral Bay… an underwater experience to remember.
