North West Cape is about 1200 km north of Perth in Western Australia. Ningaloo Reef fringes the western side of the Cape from the tip for about 250 km South.
The reef lays anything from a few hundred metres to a few kilometers offshore- thus forming a giant lagoon with extensive shallow sand flats and crystal clear water.
There are not big tidal movements, and the sky is more often than not cloudless. These factors combine to provide great polaroiding from the front of the boat. |

The area inside the reef holds numerous fish species including our recent discovery of trophy bonefish as well as permit, golden trevally, giant trevally, blue trevally, goldspot trevally, queenfish, spangled emperor, milkfish, giant herring, tarpon, cobia, and sweetlip (blue bastards). |
