Ningaloo Reef on Western Australia’s mid north coast, has gained an impressive reputation as one of Earth’s last ocean paradises. It’s one of the largest fringing reefs in the world and unlike many others, is accessed just by stepping off the beach.
We acknowledge and pay respect to the Baiyungu and Jinigudira people, the Traditional Custodians of the land upon which Sal Salis stands. In sharing elements of their history, heritage and culture we acknowledge the Baiyungu and Jinigudira people of the Cape Range and their connections to Country.
Ningaloo Reef comprises 200 species of hard corals and 50 species of soft corals with over 520 species of fish. During the winter months, the reef is part of the migratory routes for dolphins, dugongs, manta rays and humpback whales. The beaches of the reef are an important breeding ground of the loggerhead, green and hawksbill turtles.
Experience the Ningaloo Reef from a dive boat, catamaran, kayak, from the air on a scenic flight, or by snorkelling from the beach. Swim with graceful manta rays and see dolphins and schools of brightly coloured fish in the clearest turquoise water imaginable.
The focus at Sal Salis is the surrounding wilderness and its marine and land inhabitants, with 15 spacious wilderness tents designed to blend in with the beachfront surrounds, all with direct reef access and uninterrupted views to the horizon.

Ningaloo Reef is a 260 km long fringing coral reef located off the west coast of Australia, approximately 1200 km north of Perth, the capital city of Western Australia.
Sitting lightly and discreetly amongst the dunes overlooking the reef, Sal Salis provides a genuinely privileged place from which to explore the region and reconnect with nature at her best.
