From Monkey Mia or Denham, you can make your way back to Perth, or continue up the coast to experience another World Heritage wonder – Ningaloo Reef, the world’s largest fringing reef. A four-hour and 20-minute drive from Denham will bring you to Carnarvon in time for lunch. Stop to feast on fresh local seafood and tropical fruits from the region’s plantations. Passing through the Tropic of Capricorn, you’ll reach Coral Bay in three hours. From here, you’re just a few steps and a short swim from the coral gardens of Ningaloo Reef Marine Park – home to some 500 species of fish and 300 varieties of coral. Before heading to the restaurants to dine on the catch of the day, take a stroll or a seat on the beach and watch the colours of a Coral Bay sunset.
