From your accommodation at Sal Salis, your Whale Shark experience will begin with a 25 minute drive where you will meet your experienced skipper and crew for the day.

During the course of the day, your crew will also look out for turtles, dolphins, dugongs, rays and sea birds allowing you to see a huge variety of marine life.
