NINGALOO MARINE PARK, CAPE RANGE (DAY 1-LD, DAY2-BLD) Departing Exmouth, spend today lapping up the glorious sunshine and coastal scenery as you cycle along the coast. Swimming and snorkeling in the crystal clear waters tops off the first day of our Ningaloo Adventure. Ningaloo Marine Park is located along the coast of Western Australia, stretching from Red Bluff up to Bundegi Reef in the Exmouth Gulf. The Park covers 5076 km2 and includes both Commonwealth Waters (2436 km2) and State Waters (2640 km2). The Park protects a diverse range of environments, flora and fauna. The State component includes habitats from the shorelines, lagoon, reef and the waters extending approximately three nautical miles out to sea from the edge of the reef. The major habitats of the Commonwealth component are the waters and seabed of the continental shelf and slope which extend 3 to 9 nautical miles seaward from the State boundaries. Tonight we camp in Cape Range National Park. On Day 2, we continue our exploration of Ningaloo Marine Park and camp overnight at Ningaloo Station.
DAY 3

CORAL BAY, CARNARVON (B) Our west coast journey continues, passing through the town of Coral Bay, where we stop for lunch. Our overnight stop is in Carnarvon, a bustling, tropical town which is the hub of the Gascoyne Region. The town boasts a reputation as a great fishing spot, and the local produce is renowned for being delicious.
DAY 4

MONKEY MIA, DOLPHIN BEACH, FRANCOIS PERON NATIONAL PARK (BLD) Today is a special day as we encounter the world famous dolphins of Monkey Mia. In the heart of Western Australia’s Shark Bay is a place where you can experience the mystical world of wild dolphins. Monkey Mia is one of the world’s premier natural dolphin sighting areas; a destination of magical encounters. Located at Dolphin Beach, famous for its kilometres of secluded crystal blue waters and pristine white-shell beaches, Monkey Mia has attracted schools of dolphins to its tranquil shores daily for more than forty years. This dolphin interaction is known to be one of the most reliable meeting places for dolphins in the world. Dolphins have visited everyday in the last five years excluding only four times. It is the only place in Australia where dolphins visit daily, not seasonally, and costs nothing. You’ll have the chance to swim in the bay and see the dolphins up close for yourself. We camp overnight within the Francois Peron National Park.
DAY 5

KALBARRI, MURCHISON RIVER (BL) Our next stop is Kalbarri, a holiday mecca, where people go to relax and enjoy some of the most breathtaking scenery in Australia. It’s a friendly town located 590 km north of Perth. The abundance of clean, pure fresh water made it an ideal respite for early Cornish miners. Their leases were right in the Murchison River bed, upstream of what is now the National Park. They were subject to periodic flooding from distant cyclonic rains. Once closed, the mines could take weeks to dry out. So it was off to the coast for well-earned rest and recreation, a tradition which has flourished to this day! We spend this afternoon walking along the Murchison River, WA’s second longest river, which has over millions of years carved a gorge through the Kalbarri National Park.
DAY 6

PINNACLES DESERT (BLD) Leaving Kalbarri, we continue our adventure southwards. Today we visit the unusual landform known as the Pinnacles Desert, which is found within Nambung National Park. The Pinnacles are limestone formations, formed over thousands of years by wind and erosion, with the soft limestone wearing away leaving the columns of limestone that you see today. Our last night together on this trip will be spent camping near the Pinnacles, either in Badgingarra National Park or Jurien Bay.
DAY 7

PERTH (BL) Our final day of this Ningaloo Adventure Tour is spent making our way towards Western Australia’s capital city, Perth, where our tour finishes. You’ll have one last chance to jump on your bike today, and we’ll arrive in Perth in the mid-afternoon, knowing that you’ve experienced some of WA’s most spectacular natural landscapes.
