Cape Range National Park

So many places to explore. Be sure to take enough water for any hikes around the gorges and anytime you plan to swim, snorkel or 4wd around the Cape. It can can very hot and arid in the spring/summer months. Bring snorkelling gear to check out all the beautiful sealife in the bays. Also make sure to bring a camera to showcase all the beauty you see, to your family and friends.

Heaven on earth. So much to do here: a little hiking on the beautiful gorges of Charles knife, snorkelling on the beautiful Ningaloo reef, kayaking, admiring the most beautiful creatures of the ocean, fishing, having the most stunning beach just for you to swim and relax. The whole park is well preserved and it is a pleasure to spend holidays here.

We stayed at Osprey Bay and our campsite was within walking distance of the beach.
Stunning ocean views.
Table set up for perfect viewings of the stunning sunsets.
Good (non smelly) eco toilets set up.
It was blowing a gale while we were there though so not the best for snorkelling.
Can't control the weather though.
The other bays (especially Turquoise Bay) were stunning too!!

Today and a longer trip just recently
Beautiful weather and amazing scenery and Snorkelling experience.

An absolutely amazing experience travelling through here. True beauty and a must visit place for all. Allow one week to cover Exmouth and Coral Bay. Snorkelling here is unreal.

Cape Range National Park is a hidden gem with beautiful, stunning views and well-maintained hiking tracks. A small detour off the main road proved to be a worthwhile adventure. The natural beauty and diverse landscapes make it a must-visit destination. Highly recommend exploring this captivating park.

AWESOME. When you hear a place talked up so expectations are high and then the place blitzes it.. came for the diving and snorkelling but there's so much more and something for everyone. Do go to Mangroves at low tide, Do walk Yardie Gorge to see those wallabies. Do stand on a hill and see the whales breaching. And do go snorkelling. You don't need to do an organised boat trip, you'll see so much just snorkelling off the beaches in Cape Range - David Attenborough, eat your heart out!!

Love this place and the Ningaloo Reef. Sooooooo much to do here in the National Park. You need to buy a WA National Park day pass, or buy an annual pass via RAC for 50% off ($60).

Camping, fishing, swimming, snorkelling, spear fishing, bush walking, surfing, watch turtle nesting, boat ramp, tours and a beautiful fringe reef right off the beach.
About 60km bitumen road to Yardie Creek, but 4wd needed to go on sand.

So many great camping areas all along the coastline. $11 per adult or $7 concession per night. Bookings must be done online. Telstra reception scattered, so book beforehand.

Turquoise Bay & Sandy Bay are spectacular.

What an amazing place to visit. Truly spectacular. The landscape is timeless and the coastline is beautiful. I spent 6 days in Osprey bay and loved it. Swimming, snorkelling, fishing right from the camp. Hiking a few kms away through Mandu George, kayaking through Yardie Creek seeing rock wallabies and plenty of beaches like Turquoise Bay close by. I will be coming back.

Wonderful park ! The best I've been visited in WA. I recommend to stay at least 2 nights just to enjoy the wild and to sleep near to the sea. It was amazing, and really relaxing. Buy everything before exmouth. Because everything is so expensive. 11$ for 10L of water when is 4$ in city 😂

Definitely worth a drive to see the sunrise at the top of the canyon. 2nd turn off as you're heading out of town. The 1st turn off takes you for a scenic 4wd trip along the canyon floor. Lots of caves and scenery

An absolutely gorgeous place to visit!!

Stunning semi-arid landscape of karst, limestone and sandstone. Medium deep gorges and white beaches ringed by a fringing reef, Ningaloo. Whales are dancing on the horizon, snorkeling is world class.

Mothernature at her best ,we have visited this national park a number of times,snorkelling,exploring, kayaking etc etc etc 🤿🐠🐠🐠🐠take a professional snorkel trip & see the whale shark you won't be disappointed, awesome experience ✅lots of wildlife to spot in the park,sea Eagles,rock wallabies, & lots of other animals, keep a lookout 😊

Offers excellent snorkeling and general swimming oportunities. The local marine life is diverse. A strong swimming ability is recommended as the current is very strong and can easily catch inexperienced swimmers off guard.

Spectacular national park!! Beautiful walking paths and amazing snorkelling spots in the coral reef very close to shore. There is also a big number of animals: we have seen kangaroos, emus, green turtles, corals, octopuses, crayfish and beautiful colorful fish. I really recommend walking along Yardie Creek Gorge. The best snorkelling spots we saw were Turquoise Bay (white beach, but strong current) and Oyster Stacks. Oyster stacks was my favorite spot because the reef there is very accessible. You swim in less than 2 m of depth among corals (be careful not to damage it) and colorful fish. Swimming with a turtle was just a unique experience.

So many beautiful places to stop and visit

This is one of most beautiful parts of the world I have ever been to.

A park to come multiple times, once a year at least for cauple days ~ weeks
Magnificent beaches and nice short hikes for great views & Sunsets

A spectacular park filled with kangaroos, emus, bustards, goannas, black-footed rock wallabies, elusive echidnas, very shy dingos and friendly flies. Definitely worth a visit!
