It was another multiple whale shark day today on our Whale Shark Adventure here in Exmouth including another fantastic unique encounter! Our first whale shark was a big boy coming it at about 8m. He was huge - really wide and really rotund.
As we were swimming with one whale shark, a second whale shark came up behind the snorkellers! The second shark rocked back and forth, swam straight for the first whale shark as we all scrambled to get out of the way, and then they both kind of circled us for a bit until the second one veered casually to the right and simply wandered off into the blue! Breathtaking!
Our last whale shark of the day was another big one and he was very content to just slowly meander along. He was extremely easy to keep up with and let us stay with him for ages.
We ended our day with a dive at Coral Island. This is another of our new sites this season (see Cam's Canyon from Sunday 7 June) and it's filled with all manner of fishes & marine creatures. We had turtles, rays, sharks, schooling fish, baitfish, angelfish...it was a very active site and the hard coral formations are incredible, too.
