Arrive in Perth and pick up your vehicle before settling into your accommodation. Depending on your interests and where you stay tonight (refer available options), spend time on the beach at Scarborough, stroll through Kings Park or indulge in a meal and coffee at Fremantle. If you have the time to spend another day in Perth consider the day visiting other great attractions including the Perth Mint or Museum of Western Australia. Alternatively consider a day trip to the island paradise that is Rottnest island just 19 km off the coast of Perth City.

Today has you beginning your west coast adventure. The initial 257km drive north takes you through a region known as the Turquoise Coast. Experience market gardens, fabulous farming scenery and extensive ocean views. Over 200,000 people visit the area annually visiting world class attractions such as the fascinating Pinnacles Desert. Spend some time walking around these statuesque limestone pillars rising out of the sand like ancient ruins. In the afternoon explore the attractions along the coast north of The Pinnacles including Lake Thetis home to some of the earliest organisms on Earth that produced the oxygen for subsequent life forms. Jurien Bay is the largest coastal town and offers wonderful beaches protected by the islands and reefs which lie just a few kilometres from the shoreline.

Today has you leaving the Turquoise Coast and heading north to Kalbarri. Before leaving Geraldton make sure you visit the HMAS Sydney Memorial, free guided tours run every morning. Continuing north you will come across the amazing Pink Lake which is definitely worth a quick stop and some photos. This afternoon relax and explore the striking coast as you approach Kalbarri. The lookouts, beaches, headlands and walking tracks along this compact stretch of coast are remarkable. Choose from 10 available options depending on your interests (each have something unique to offer). A relaxing evening at Kalbarri township looking out over the Mighty Murchison River.

Today you have time to explore the magnificent Kalbarri National Park. It is one of the great National Parks in Australia, becoming a vast carpet of wildflowers between August & October, with elaborate twists and turns of the Murchison River as it cuts its way to the sea. Spend the day exploring the spectacular lookouts and walks including visiting Z-Bend gorge, “The Loop” and the iconic “Natures Window”. Don’t miss the stunning new Skywalk at ‘the Loop’ where you are perched 100m above the gorge. By late afternoon return to the beach to watch the sunset over the water with the rich red cliffs behind you. A fantastic way to cap off the day.

Departing Kalbarri, today has you driving to Shark Bay & Monkey Mia. The bottlenose dolphins are best seen tomorrow morning so today is all about exploring the attractions along the way. From Kalbarri National Park, drive the 350km to Denham exploring the majestic Shark Bay World Heritage Area visiting the Stromatolites (descendant to the oldest life form on earth) and world famous Shell Beach with its billions of tiny cockle shells (amazing). Views from Eagle Bluff or a tour of the fantastic Ocean Park Aquarium cap off a great day.

Spend the morning at Monkey Mia, globally recognised as one of the best and most reliable places for dolphin interaction in the world. Feeding the dolphins at Monkey Mia is one of the great experiences, however please note not everyone gets to feed a dolphin and very strict controls apply. After your interaction with wild dolphins begin the long 550km drive to Coral Bay and the wonderful swimming holes and snorkeling sites of central Ningaloo Reef.

If you prefer to break up this long day driving, you have the option to visit Point Quobba “The Aquarium” (amazing snorkeling) and the spectacular Blowholes, spending the night in Carnarvon instead. For this option add an extra night to your overall package, stay in Carnarvon tonight and drive the remaining 238km to Coral Bay tomorrow. Alternatively you can spend an additional day in Monkey Mia and spend the day meeting more of Shark Bay’s marine life on a wildlife cruise or take a 4WD tour of Francois Peron National Park.

A full day exploring the pristine beaches and abundant coral at Coral Bay. In contrast to other locations the coral starts right at the water’s edge and offers very easy access to swimmers and snorkelers of all ages. Self guide the reef or take a guided tour on a glass bottom boat or even a day trip to swim with Manta Rays (year round) or Whales Sharks (seasonal – please note shorter season than Exmouth). One of the great experiences along the WA coast is spending the time exploring around Coral Bay.

A full day to relax and explore the Ningaloo Coast World Heritage Area between Coral Bay and Exmouth. Spend the morning walking out to the shark nursery north of Coral Bay or take a morning quad bike tour to Oyster Bridge or Five Fingers for sensational remote Ningaloo Reef snorkeling away from the crowds. After a memorable morning around Coral Bay take the relatively short drive up to Exmouth stopping at the stunning road side lookouts of Cape Range National Park. For the more adventurous consider the walk to the Shotgun Canyon Lookout – Stunning

A relaxing day catching up with more swimming and snorkeling in this pristine world class environment. Drift Snorkel at Turquoise Bay and Oyster Stacks, swim at stunning Sandy Bay before spending the afternoon on a Yardie Creek Boat Cruise or do the walk in Mandu Mandu Gorge.
