Snorkeling
The Ningaloo Marine park protects and host some of Australia's most important and spectacular natural coral and marine life, making it a prime snorkeling destination. The Ningaloo Marine park covers a 260 km area, stretching from Bundegi Beach to Amherst Point which is south of Coral Bay - making it one of the world's largest coral fringing reefs, teaming with marine life for you to discover.

What makes it even more special is the reef's close proximity to the coast. In some areas it is only 5 - 10m offshore making it easily accessible with breathtaking snorkelling just a short swim away. The reef protects a lagoon that is on average only 2-4 meters deep not only exploding with schools of fish and coral but also providing sheltered snorkelling for the less experienced or first time snorkelers. The reef is home to some 250 species of coral and 500 species of fish giving the Ningaloo reef an impressive variety.

With limitless snorkeling sites along the Ningaloo coastline you will be spoilt for choice. You can experience the Ningaloo reef in a variety of ways either from a dive boat, coral viewing boat, sea kayak or by simply snorkeling the reef the good old fashioned way. Snorkeling gear can be hired or bought from one of many places in town. With water temperatures varying from 18 - 28 degrees you'll have no excuse not to get into the water and explore an underwater wonder.

Popular snorkeling sites like Lakeside, Turquoise Bay and Oyster Stacks can be reached by conventional vehicle however the Ningaloo Reef Bus offers a daily bus service to the best spots on the Ningaloo reef.

Keen divers will not be left out. With world renowned sites like the Navy Pier, rated one of the top ten Pier/Jetty dives in Australia, you will not be disappointed.
