Australia’s CORAL COAST Holiday Planner 2018 the NINGALOO region Regarded as one of the last great ocean paradises, Ningaloo Reef is Australia’s largest fringing reef system, stretching 300 kilometres from Red Bluff (accessible via Carnarvon) running north along the coast to the Muiron Islands in the north and Bundegi Beach in the west of the Exmouth Gulf. In the south, Carnarvon is an ideal base for day trips and overnight visits to the southern Ningaloo Reef and Gascoyne Hinterland. Further north, Coral Bay, is a small, laid back seaside village - a marine paradise for nature lovers and one of WA’s premier family holiday destinations. The town of Exmouth is the northern gateway and is the perfect location from which to explore the impressive landscape of the Cape Range National Park and the underwater wonders of the Ningaloo Marine Park.
