About This Tour

Enjoy a breathtaking flight from Perth to Shark Bay, from the city beaches to the remote vastness of the World Heritage area. On arrival, meet the famously friendly Monkey Mia dolphins as they come to shore for their morning feed.

After lunch overlooking the beach, take to the skies in search of Shark Bay’s marine life – dolphins, dugongs, sharks, turtles and rays can all be seen from the air. Ask about options including a morning wildlife cruise, Shell Beach, Hamelin Pool, the Pinnacles, Kalbarri and overnight stays.

Discover Shark Bay and Monkey Mia

Shark Bay, on Australia’s westernmost coast, was World Heritage listed in 1991 for its outstanding natural values. Its seagrass meadows are among the largest in the world and support around 10% of the world’s dugongs, along with turtles, rays and sharks.

At Monkey Mia, wild bottlenose dolphins have been visiting the beach for decades, giving visitors a rare chance to see them up close. Shark Bay is also home to Hamelin Pool’s stromatolites – among the oldest life forms on Earth – and Shell Beach, made entirely of tiny white shells.
