Exmouth is a diver’s dream, offering world-class dive sites and the chance to explore the remarkable underwater ecosystems of the Ningaloo Reef. Whether you’re looking to join a shore or boat diving tour, gain your PADI certification, or upskill on an advanced course, Exmouth offers several options for divers of all skill levels.
One of the region’s most iconic dive sites is the Exmouth Navy Pier, consistently ranked among the top 10 dive sites in Australia. This active 300-metre-long Navy Pier is teeming with vibrant marine life that thrives around the jetty pillars, but access is strictly controlled. You’ll need to book a tour with Dive Ningaloo, the only operator authorised to use the site.
Both Dive Ningaloo and Exmouth Dive & Whalesharks Ningaloo offer tours to the Ningaloo Reef and the nearby Muiron Islands. The Ningaloo Reef, one of the world’s largest fringing reefs, is home to over 450 species of marine life and 250 species of coral and can be easily accessed through a shore dive. A short boat ride away, the pristine Muiron Islands are a haven for scuba divers with an abundance of coral gardens, rocky ledges and caves to explore.
If you’re new to diving, Exmouth is an excellent place to get started with a PADI dive course, while experienced divers can take their skills to the next level with specialty courses.
All tours include gear, or divers are welcome to bring their own equipment if they prefer. Family-friendly snorkelling tours are also available.
