Shark Bay and Ningaloo Reef

Shark Bay has over 1,500 kilometres of white and red sand beaches, sheer cliffs and crystal clear water. The bays are shallow with waters that seem to be sparkling and perfectly clear. On any given day visitors are likely to see turtles, dugongs, manta rays and countless fish, just below the surface of the water. Visitors also have the chance to see whales as they migrate to warmer waters during winter. Marvel at the millions of tiny shells on Shell Beach and discover Hamelin Pool, home to the most diverse and abundant examples of marine stromatolites in the world.

Monkey Mia is home to a colony of wild bottlenose dolphins who swim to shore daily. Parks and Wildlife Service officers are on hand to dispense a small supply of fish for visitors to feed to the dolphins, ensuring that the dolphins will continue to forage for the bulk of their food and not become dependent on the handouts from humans.

Carnarvon is a friendly coastal town that prides itself on being a year-round holiday destination. Visit Coral Bay wheer you can snorkel the coral gardens just metres offshore from pristine white beaches and swim with the whalesharks from March to June.

Exmouth is positioned between the Ningaloo Reef and Cape Range National Park. It offers the beauty of rugged gorges contrasting with the aquatic splendor of Ningaloo Marine Park.
