Ningaloo Reef

Region Information

Ninagloo Reef

The Ningaloo Coast World Heritage Area covers more than 600,000 hectares and includes the Ningaloo Marine Park, Cape Range National Park, the Bundegi and Jurabi Coastal Parks and the Muiron Islands Marine Management Area.

The world-famous Ningaloo Marine Park that protects the reef stretches 300 kilometres along Western Australia’s coast, from Bundegi Reef near Exmouth to Red Bluff located 140 kilometres north of Carnarvon.

Here you can dive and snorkel with a breathtaking array of tropical fish over coral gardens, relax on pristine secluded beaches and experience the incredible thrill of swimming with the world’s largest fish, the whale shark.

Carnarvon Region

Known as the fruit bowl of Western Australia (WA), the Carnarvon region is a lush oasis lying to the south of the world famous Ningaloo Reef.

Witness the dramatic spectacle of the blow holes and discover WA’s past at the fascinating Carnarvon Heritage Precinct. Enjoy superb fishing, surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing and swimming in the beautifully rugged surroundings of Quobba Station, Red Bluff and Gnaraloo.

Or, why not head off into the rugged outback to climb the world’s largest monocline, Mount Augustus, and explore the Kennedy Range National Park.
