The is the real winner for being the best reef in Australia. It is pristine, unspoiled and simply amazingly beautiful. The visibility was at least 50m when you dive it near Exmouth. You see carpet sharks, morays, puffer fish, octopus and much more... Truly amazing. With the Yongala wreck my favorite dive in Oz :) Dive it in Exmouth! It is more to see but also diving it in Coral Bay is worth it... But dive it!

So beautiful and so quiet. The ocean is crystal clear and warm so diving and snorkelling there is excellent. Much quieter than the Great Barrier Reef. I first went here in January and swam with the manta rays. Loved it so much I went back in May and this time swam with the whalesharks. Amazing place and definitely in my top five.
