What is the best time of year to visit Sal Salis?

With Sal Salis just steps from the Ningaloo Reef, there’s no single ‘best’ time to visit. Nature sets the rhythm here, and each part of the season brings its own magic – from whale sharks typically arriving in autumn and staying through to spring, to humpback whales making their migration along the coast during winter and spring. Turtles are seen year-round, with larger numbers nesting and hatching from October through to March.

The beginning and end of season offer warmer days, while mid-year brings cooler temperatures -though in northern Western Australia, it’s still beautifully mild for swimming and soaking up the sun.

As with all wildlife, timings may vary – but there’s always something remarkable to experience here, all year round.

What if I have limited mobility?

Sal Salis seeks to ensure that our guests experience the unique environment of the world heritage listed Ningaloo Reef. Our camp is located amongst sand dunes and surrounded by Cape Range National Park’s rugged landscape. Due to our unique location this also means that guests who travel into this area may not be supported with the same infrastructure as found in urban areas.

As we are in a remote location and due to development restrictions, strict environmental policies and our unwavering commitment to reducing impacts on our local environment, means that activities or accessing some areas of Sal Salis will include walking on uneven surfaces, through sloping walking paths and sand dunes. This can mean that guests with fitness and / or mobility restrictions may not be able to experience all of the Sal Salis facilities and activities.

A solar powered golf buggy does provide guest and luggage transport from the closest car park for check in and check out of the main lodge facility.

If your fitness to travel may be in doubt as a result of recent illness, surgery, injury, medical treatment or an existing medical condition you should seek medical advice prior to commencing your visit to Sal Salis.
