Don’t Like Camping? This Luxury Safari Camp Might Change Your Mind!

ADVERTISEMENT

If your idea of a romantic, relaxing and luxurious vacation has never included the word ‘camping’, then join the club. But how many campsites do you know where the tents have en-suite bathrooms, king-sized beds, and a resident chef to prepare all your meals?

That’s what you get when experiencing Australia’s take on living under canvas. This amazing safari camp called Sal Salis is situated in the stunning Cape Range National Park, at the edge of the awe-inspiring Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia.

The camp is made up of eco-friendly luxury tents on raised on timber platforms, which is handy for keeping out the creepy crawlies that Australia is famous for. The tents have open-front verandas overlooking the ocean, which are perfect for sunset drinks or allowing you to wake to the soothing sounds and sights of nature.

Aside from offering incredible snorkelling in pristine coral lagoons, Ningaloo Reef is also one of the few places in the world where you can swim with the mighty Whale Sharks. Measuring up to 12 metres or more, these majestic giants of the deep have a mouth with a circumference of an impressive 1.5 metres – which can be pretty intimidating – but apparently they only eat plankton & krill, so you should be pretty safe.

After a day of swimming with the world’s largest fish, head to the main lodge of the safari camp and mingle with the other guests, while helping yourself to a chilled drink from the open bar. With any sort of luck you’ll get to experience one of the mind-blowing sunsets over the ocean that you definitely won’t forget in a hurry.

The remoteness of this location makes it the perfect escape from reality, so if you fancy some undisturbed quality time with your loved one, or are looking for a vacation spot that will blow the socks off everyone else’s – you just might have found it.
