Day 1: Perth to Kalbarri. Meet the gang in Perth and kick off your adventure with the jaw-dropping Pinnacles Desert in Nambung National Park. Tuck into a delish lunch at Jurien Bay before travelling on to the coastal town of Kalbarri and tuck into a few brews and a dinner with your travel fam.
Day 2: Kalbarri to Monkey Mia. We’re up early for a magical sunrise at either Nature’s Window or the Kalbarri Skywalk! Then discover Murchison Gorge and its famous Z Bend, before heading to the legendary Billabong Roadhouse for lunch. This afternoon, check out the stromatolites at Shark Bay before continuing to Monkey Mia, our awesome beachfront resort.
Day 3: Monkey Mia to Coral Bay. Meet the famous Monkey Mia dolphins this morning! Standing in the shallows seeing these gorgeous creatures is an unforgettable experience. Chill on the sugar-white beach before hitting the highway. Take in spectacular views at Eagle Bluff, and stroll along a shell beach before heading to Coral Bay, just off the Ningaloo Reef.
Day 4: Coral Bay to Exmouth. You’ll have most of today to explore Australia’s largest fringe reef. Discover its abundant marine life for yourself, or supercharge your day with one of our optional trips including swimming with manta rays, and a glass-bottom boat tour (payable locally)! This evening take the short drive up the peninsula to the chilled-out resort town of Exmouth.
Day 5: Exmouth. We’re exploring the ancient Cape Range National Park today where you can chill on the beach or go snorkelling at the aptly named Turquoise Bay. This afternoon, explore Exmouth town, chill by the pool, or join an optional whaleshark or humpack swim! Later, we’ll head to Vlamingh Head Lighthouse for sunset views to die for.
Day 6: Exmouth to Geraldton. We’re off to lively Geraldton today. Visit the coastal town of Carnarvon and one of the local banana or mango plantations en route and stop in Billabong for coffee and ice-cream, before arriving in Geraldton. Enjoy a last dinner with your travel fam (sniff sniff) and a few brewskis. Please note: The plantation visit is seasonal.
