All About
Giant Tides Sea Safari
Highlights
Duration: 2 Hours
Location: Cygnet Bay, WA
Experience the power of the world’s largest tropical tides as our Skippers navigate giant whirlpools and standing waves. Journey through Escape Passage, recently identified by scientists as the fastest ocean currents on the planet.
The unique Kimberley Coast amplifies the immense tidal forces. When the sun and moon align during a spring tide, the ocean is drawn toward the northwest, funnelled through the shallow continental shelf and bottlenecked between Australia and Indonesia.
This dramatic tidal surge creates the thrilling whirlpools and standing waves you’ll witness on the tour—an unforgettable natural spectacle.
Depart from Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm on an amphibious Sealegs vessel, transferring to a high-powered 12-seater rib with twin 250hp engines, built for these intense tides. Prepare for an unforgettable adventure where nature's raw energy takes centre stage.

- Transfer from Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm to the tour vessel via amphibious Sealegs vessels
