We left our camp at 8am and didn’t reach the highway till 11.30am. Arrived in Exmouth an hour later and the cheapest caravan park was $62 a night(that was including a %10 discount too!). Exmouth is a rip off! There are 2 IGA’s 50 meters apart, owned by the same person. Spread out, Exmouth is a tiny country town. The town water is very salty, which is making our skin sting and our hair snap. There is a new marina at the entrance, with homes made of corrugated iron (so the termites cant eat them), very expensive and if you don’t have a boat or like fishing, there is nothing to do. We had Jade’s 10th birthday here and decided to stay for the Ningaloo Whale Shark Festival, which was advertised & sounded really good, but was very disappointing. We could not wait to get out to the Cape Range National Park where we camped at the Osprey campground on the foreshore of the Ningaloo Reef. We are here for 6 days & it’s only $18 a night for this glorious view!
Good snorkelling spots. Out the front of our camp there are lots of turtles, so we were able to play & pat them.
This is just around the corner from Turquoise Bay. The colour of the water is mesmerising. We are very sad to leave this beautiful place.
P.S. We did not catch one fish!
