Marine Calendar
We have a beautiful array of wildlife available to watch and dive with on Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia. As with most marine wildlife, the breeding and migration patterns follow the seasons and the oceans currents and temperature influence their movements. While the seasonal patterns may vary slightly, the marine calendar below gives a good indication of which species are present on the Ningaloo Reef during which calendar months to help you plan your visit.
Important: While past migration and breeding movements are indicative of future patterns, there is no guarantee each season will adhere strictly to this timetable
