Chrissy has a once in a lifetime, bucket list worthy, opportunity snorkelling turquoise bay.

• Situated 13 hours drive north from Perth along the Coral Coast Highway, Exmouth serves as the gateway to the Ningaloo Marine Park and Cape Range National Park.
• The region is renowned for its sprawling turquoise waters, vibrant coral reefs, and striking red cliffs. These natural features offer numerous bucket-list experiences, including one of the world's best beaches — Turquoise Bay.
• Recognized as one of Australia’s premier beaches, Turquoise Bay is celebrated for its crystal-clear waters and pristine white sands. Named the #1 beach in the South Pacific and #3 in the world by TripAdvisor in 2022, it’s a must-visit destination.
• The beach is ideal for snorkelling due to its close proximity to Ningaloo Reef, part of the UNESCO World Heritage site, and stunning array of marine biodiversity. Visitors can witness an underwater paradise teeming with marine life, including colourful coral, clownfish, turtles, and even reef sharks.
• A unique experience here is the drift dive, where snorkelers can let the gentle current carry them along the reef, providing a relaxing yet thrilling adventure suitable for both beginners and advanced snorkelers.
• Exmouth and the surrounding areas have much more to offer beyond Turquoise Bay. From other secluded beaches and coral reefs to the unique landscapes of Cape Range National Park, there’s always something new to discover on this side of the Cape.
