Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
Soak up the natural beauty of Ningaloo Reef – a UNESCO World Heritage site. Hike up to Mandu Mandu Gorge’s rim, take a three-hour glass bottom boat tour to spot turtles in Coral Bay and spend your free time walking the shores of Oyster Bay and Turquoise Bay.
Visit Shell Beach – one of only two beaches in the world made entirely from seashells – during your time in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area. Then, enjoy heaps of free time to explore the bay however you like. Maybe go kayaking, snorkelling, stand-up paddleboarding or 4WDing.
Be treated to the Murchison Glow Dinner Experience in Kalbarri National Park. Here, you’ll learn about the local area before gliding along Murchison River in a canoe and sitting down to a four-course dinner of regional dishes as the sun sets.
Walk through the otherworldly landscape of the Pinnacles Desert – this national reserve is peppered with strange natural limestone structures that date back to around 30,000 years!
See the vibrant pink to lilac hues of Hutt Lagoon – the extra high salinity in the lake causes the bright shades of colour.
