#6 IN THE WORLD

SECLUDED AND UNTOUCHED PERFECTION

Turquoise Bay in Western Australia truly lives up to its name with some of the most radiant turquoise waters you might ever see. The beach is undeveloped, maintaining a sense of untouched natural beauty where the desert meets the sea. This remote location within Cape Range National Park means fewer crowds and more space to explore the sandy shores and surrounding scrubland. Additionally, Turquoise Bay is particularly known for its snorkeling right from the shore. The waters of the bay are part of the incredible Ningaloo Reef, providing up-close encounters with a diverse array of marine life in crystal-clear conditions. Its currents gently carry snorkelers along the reef in a relaxing drift, commonly known as the 'Drift Snorkel.' Turquoise Bay offers an immersive nature experience that is rare to find elsewhere.

I "It has the softest white sand and bright blue ocean waters. Not only is it a beautiful place to rest and relax on a sunny Australian afternoon, but also a super fun beach to visit! It is a very popular snorkel spot, with plenty of marine life to look out for."
