Welcome to Exmouth
Ningaloo Reef runs just offshore from Exmouth, making it one of the few places on earth where you can swim with whale sharks from the shore. Snorkeling, diving, and sea turtle encounters draw people here from across Australia and beyond. Resorts in Exmouth are built around this coastal access, with many properties positioned to make early morning reef trips and guided ocean tours as straightforward as possible.

When to visit Exmouth
High and low season in Exmouth
The dry season, running roughly from April through October, is the most popular time to visit Exmouth. Conditions are warm and settled, making it ideal for snorkeling, diving, and exploring the area around Ningaloo Reef. Whale sharks are typically present between March and July, drawing visitors from around the world. Accommodation fills quickly during this period, so booking well ahead is worth doing.
The wet season, from around November to March, brings heat and humidity, with the chance of cyclones and heavy rain. Some tours and activities may not operate reliably during this time, and road conditions in the area can be affected. That said, visitor numbers drop significantly, and you may find lower prices and more flexibility with bookings.
Exmouth has a small local events calendar that can be tricky to confirm from outside the area. The visitor information centre in Exmouth is a practical first stop for current activities, community events, and seasonal programmes before your trip.
