Turquoise Bay
National Parks and Reserves
Known as one of Western Australia's best beaches, Turquoise Bay in Cape Le Grand National Park is the perfect spot to spend the day relaxing, swimming and snorkelling.
The best snorkelling is accessed via the Bay Loop parking area which is towards the northern half of the bay, well away from the potentially strong currents found at the sandy point at the southern end of the bay.
Park at the Drift Loop parking area to access the popular drift snorkelling site south of Turquoise Bay's sandy point. A natural current flows from south to north taking you over beautiful corals.
Walk approximately 200m south of the track that leads you on to the beach from the Drift Loop parking area. Enter the water at the southern end of the beach and let the current take you over the reef for a fantastic snorkelling experience.
Currents can be strong at Turquoise Bay, especially around the sandbar located at the southernmost point of the bay loop and the northern end of the drift loop, so please take care.
Please remember that this beautiful spot is in a sanctuary zone in Ningaloo Marine Park so look but don't take.
