Welcome to Shark Bay Shark Ark Project


The Shark Bay Shark Ark Project is an independent, privately funded, community based conservation project. We are 100% self-funded in our quest to create Australia’s BIGGEST shark sanctuary in our World Heritage Listed Marine Park home. We provide logistical support to marine science groups, local conservation groups, as well as helping aspiring natural documentary  film makers to create global multimedia educational content about Shark Bay, Western Australia. Our aim is to make learning about sharks as easy, fun and accessible as possible and most importantly. FREE.
