Coral Bay - Ningaloo Reef <2009.4.19>

Here we are,, 1.600km north of Perth - 10 days after the start of trip - at the Ningaloo Reef. It is the West Australia main diving destination and most famous beach spot - the Coral Bay.


At Coral Bay we stayed just one night as everything was booked out over the easter holidays which are still on until 25th of April.

Neverhtenless we had time to explore the beautiful beach and dip our heads in the cool water to snorkel around.

The beach and sourrounded bays are really nice, however the corals are really done around this spot and not so many fish left. So don`t expect too much when start from the beach ...










The better place to explore the Ningaloo Reef is the small village up north at Exmouth. So there we are and I - already on my first dive trip out to the reef :-)


I choose Ningaloo Reef Dreaming as they are the only ones offering the Navy Pier Dive - one of the Top10 spots in the world (Place 6 right now)



Today I dive at the reef at Blizard Beach & Banana Hammock which were really great dive spots already.


Expect plenty of fish, sharks, bull rays and all those below:





Wobbiegong - Carpet Shark







Sea Snakes

Transperent Fish




Jelly`s



And wonderful nudie branches





I really can recommend this shop as the offering great service, small groups, professional guidance and a lot of fun!




I will be with Ningaloo Reef Dreaming also the other days for the Navi Pier & finally the whale sharks :-o)
