We found an even better place than Coral Bay and that is in the Cape Range national park, just south of Exmouth on the Indian ocean side. There are camping sites right on the beach, and the snorkelling is amazing. It is even better than Coral Bay and way less touristy. Most campsites only allow 7 campers. The coral was also more colourful and the fish more colourful. I saw a large shovelnosed ray, which was pretty cool.

We went for a walk at the Yardie creek gorge and saw two snakes. One was a death Adder (according to this guy in Army uniform), and we weren’t sure what the other one was. Mike can now cross “snakes” off his “to-see” list.

We spent two days here, just snorkelling and enjoying the weather.
