Where the outback meets the reef?


Lying 70km from the nearest town of Exmouth, north Western Australia, Sal Salis is as about as posh as bush camping can be. The exclusive Sal Salis is a luxury tented camp overlooking world renowned Ningaloo Reef, hidden amongst blindingly white sand dunes of Cape Range National Park on the shores of the Indian Ocean. With just nine luxury wilderness tents Sal Salis provides a unique place from which to explore Western Australia’s coral coast and one of Australia’s best kept natural secrets. It’s ecotourism at its best.



Sal Salis offers nine spacious wilderness tents that are the epitome of what you would expect from a luxury hotel. Designed to expose you to the sights and sounds outside your tent but with all the modern sleeping luxuries of a 5 star resort, private tents have double beds, sofas, 100% cotton linen, en suite bathrooms, views to die for, but crucially no TVs, telephones or dreaded mini bars. The resident chef ensures this is supported by the very best of Australian bush cuisine and a selection of fine Western Australian wines.



Ningaloo is acknowledged as the best place in the world to swim with the world’s largest fish, the Whale Shark and Manta Rays, as these gentle giants migrate northwards every year. Offering uninterrupted views of the coral coast, the main camp building has been raised to sit above the sand and coastal scrub. Guests are free to explore the coral reef mere metres from the shore, where turtles live and breed. For a true eco experience why not join one of the camp’s tour guides on a two week volunteer program where you’ll learn about WA’s rich biodiversity as well as the hospitality business. Pricing: Double tent from $730 for one night, Single, $1095. Guided snorkeling, kayak tours, boat trip on Yardie Creek, National Park entry and meals included in the price. Minimum two night stay.
