While the Ningaloo Reef is less well known than the Great Barrier Reef on the North East coast of Australia, it is said that the Ningaloo Reef has a greater variety of marine life with Whale Sharks and Manta Rays visiting it regularly on a seasonal basis. Being a weak swimmer I wasn't that excited by this visit. While I did a bit of snorkelling,...

Well it is high time we updated our blog from Coral Bay. As Managers of Bayview we are busy all the time and never quite sure what each day will bring. Since last writing we have survived schoolies week, had a restraining order issued, a booked out Christmas and New Year period and 3 cyclone alerts all while working around 80 hours a week. But w...

Am morgen erwachen und die Tuere neben dem Bett oeffnen und einfach aufs Meer schauen, dass erlebt man auch nicht jeden Tag. Wir machten uns auf die 300 km lange Autofahrt nach Coral Bay. Coral Bay liegt am Ningaloo Reef und hat nur 120 Einwohner und ist sehr attraktiv fuers schnorcheln. Und es ist wirklich wunderschoen und herrlich in dem warme...

Coral Bay is one of those places best appreciated in the water as here you could potentially see a vast array of marine life from fish , dolphins, whale sharks, turtles and reef sharks. So, determined to make the most of our visit we hired some snorkelling kit and headed for the water. Unfortunately, neither of us got on too well. Neil was first...

Scuba diving in Exmouth sadly came to end.

I caught a ride with my friend Tony (An abnoxious prima dona German girl named Susannah joined us...she begged Tony for a ride and he...

We were able to get a caravan site no problem fo...

So, we're a bit further north now - the weather's balmy and beautiful and aside from extreme sleep deprivation right now, everything's good! Quite a lot seems to have happened since Perth, so I'll try and recall all the details! From Perth we travelled a couple of hours north to Cervantes, which is a tiny town next to the Pinnacles National Park...

After a fab fish and chip dinner off to bed for an early night, up at 6 to go to Kalbarri National park where i had made a school bot error and said that i would do some cliff jumping (with a rope). When we arrived at the national park we found a little friend called a throne lizard, looks pretty cool. Well i managed to pluck up the corrage and ...

Arrived into Coral Bay at 2.30am. Everything was ready and waiting for us (a key at reception in our crockery basket). Had a big long sleep in before venturing out to the shops to get some eats. Coral Bay is TINY it takes less than 5 minutes to walk end to end, however there are two small shops selling the basics, for a small fortune. That after...
