Perth to Exmouth Tour (18+)

### Day 1: Perth - Kalbarri Welcome to sunny Perth, where your overland journey begins. Leave the city, driving north to Nambung National Park to explore The Pinnacles. These are ancient rock sculptures that rise out of the yellow sands of the landscape. From here continue on through Geraldton to the quiet beach town of Kalbarri, where you’ll stay the night.

### Day 2: Kalbarri National Park - Shark Bay Today, take a short drive to Kalbarri National Park. Hike around some of the park’s diverse scenery, including Murchison Gorge and Nature’s Window. It’s a steep descent into Z-Bend Gorge. Enjoy spectacular views of the ‘Kalbarri Skywalk’ overlooking the Murchison River Gorge and Kalbarri National Park. After lunch visit the beautiful Shell Beach, which is one of only two beaches in the world composed entirely of shells. Get back on the road and continue towards Monkey Mia for our overnight stop.

### Day 3: Shark Bay to Coral Bay This morning we head to the beach for the Monkey Mia dolphins experience. The idyllic shores around the Francoise Peron National Park are perfect to stretch the legs and admire another slice of Western Australian coastline. The next stop is Hamelin Pool where you’ll see the fascinating stromatolites, these marine rock formations are some of the world’s oldest and largest living fossils. After a short break, continue along the highway through Carnarvon to Coral Bay – known as the ‘Jewel of the Northwest’. Watch the sun disappear and the stars come out at Coral Bay.

### Day 4: Coral Bay Today explore picturesque Coral Bay, home to the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef. Snorkel equipment is available to hire (own expense), or you could cruise the reef in a glass-bottom boat to observe the tropical life teeming below the surface. The marine park is home to 250 species of coral and over 500 species of fish. You might prefer to take an optional scenic flight over the reef. We overnight in the Exmouth region.

### Day 5: Exmouth to Cape Range National Park Spend the morning snorkeling right off the beach in the stunning Cape Range National Park. Depending on the time of year, you have the option to snorkel or scuba dive in search of whale sharks and manta rays.
