Swimming on Ningaloo Reef Makes Your Soul Sparkle

Category: Latest News

Posted: 7th June 2020

Ningaloo Reef is an incredibly diverse fringing reef system on Western Australia coast line. After a romantic full moon in March or April, the corals feeling the love on Ningaloo, release their eggs and sperm into the water column to carry out reproductive behaviour known as coral spawning.  This coral-love-making event kicks off a very special time of the year. Following the spawning, zoo plankton blooms. Zoo plankton, including tiny krill, larvae of fish and crustaceans feed on the spawn. The increase of zoo plankton in the water attracts further feeding behaviour.  These tiny planktonic organisms become food for the biggest of all fish in the sea, the whale sharks.And so, a very magical feeding event on Ningaloo reef has been initiated.
