With pristine white-sand beaches and turquoise waters, Coral Bay is an idyllic introduction to the breathtaking beauty of the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef. It’s one of the few places on earth where you can come face-to-face with fascinating marine creatures like whale sharks. Or set off on a fishing charter.  Just steps from the world’s largest fringing reef, Coral Bay is a coastal paradise for nature lovers, packed with adventure and relaxed beach holiday vibes. Depending on the season, you’ll be accompanied by whale sharks (March to June) and humpback whales (June to November) as these gentle giants of the ocean glide over the Ningaloo Reef during their seasonal migration. Year-round, spot manta rays, dugongs and turtles. One of Western Australia’s premier fishing destinations offers the chance to catch bream, tuna, marlin, mahi-mahi and sailfish.
