About Coral Bay
Coral Bay's protected lagoon holds reef sharks, turtles and dense fish populations in 5-15 metres of water, accessible from the shore. Outside the reef, charter drift dives run along walls dropping past 30 metres. Manta cleaning stations operate year-round with peak activity April through October. Whale shark interactions are the headline draw March to August. Coral Bay is a smaller, quieter alternative to Exmouth and is usually preferred by divers wanting easy shore-based reef access.
