With the winter months approaching, the water temperature cools and the squidding action begins to fire up both in Exmouth Gulf and on the West side of the Cape. They will generally be caught over mixed weedy and sandy bottom. Great fun fishing for both young and old all you require is a kayak or dinghy. Slowly trawl your lures with a light drag set. Once you get a hook up remember to get of gear and wind up all remaining lures to prevent them snagging on the bottom.
One of the best places in Western Australia to see and experience migrating Humpback Whales is Ningaloo Marine Park off the coast of Exmouth and Exmouth Gulf. Between the months of June to November the Ningaloo Coast, and in particular Exmouth Gulf, sees the highest density of humpback whales in in the Southern Hemisphere during their annual 11,000km migration from Antarctica. An estimated 30,000 humpback whales visit the Ningaloo Coast on their way to their breeding and birthing grounds off the Kimberley.

Yes. All our vessels are fully insured. There is a refundable bond payable at the commencement of your hire. Provided the boats are returned in the same condition as you picked them up then you will be refunded your bond.
We run all our vessels with 4 stroke Yamaha motors. We have tried over the years with other brands, but we have found them inferior in reliability and durability. All motors are serviced regularly and checked on an ongoing basis. Our breakdown rate is very low.
While we can’t guarantee good weather and lots of fish, we can provide you with boat hire credit days the next time you come up. We hate the thought that you have spent good money on an item and you can’t use it because of bad weather. We are very flexible with our credit days and offer a variety of options for you. Some possible options we suggest:
- We get that Exmouth is remote and you can’t get up here as frequently as you wish. So we hold the credit days for up to 2 years for you to utilise
- We offer a variety of things for hire, so the credit does not have to apply to boat hire alone. You can use it for car hire, kayak hire and camping gear.
- You can move your boat hire dates around. Say for example you are here for 2 weeks and you book the boat for a week, it doesn’t have to be taken in a one week block. If the weather is good for the first 3 days and then is windy for the next 3 days, you can use the first 3 days of your one week hire, rest for a few days, then utilise the remainder of your 4 days when the weather looks good again.
Yes. We offer a delivery service for all our items to Coral Bay; Onslow; Waroora, Ningalooo, Giralia, Bullara and Exmouth Station turn offs. We get how remote this beautiful place is and you don’t want to lose anymore time off travelling to pick up boats, kayaks etc. We can be waiting for you at a pre organised time ready to hand over your items for your Ningaloo Reef Adventure!
We have lived in & fished in Exmouth, Coral Bay WA and its beautiful Ningaloo Reef for over 20 years and know it and love it well. We can guide you as to the best places to go with boats or kayaks, given the weather on the day and what you wish to. All larger boats come with GPS and marks so you are not travelling blind. If you have any questions we are always a phone call away.
