Outback Coast Outdoor Adventure

Stretching 600km between the Shark Bay World Heritage Area and the coastal town of Exmouth, the Outback Coast presents a stunning array of landscapes.

For the 4WD enthusiasts, head north of Carnarvon along the coast and you'll find beachside hideaways at Quobba Station, Red Bluff and Gnaraloo. This magnificent stretch of coast boasts towering cliffs and sandy beaches, great fishing and surfing. Adventure inland from Carnarvon out to the areas of Mt Augustus, the world's largest monocline and the Kennedy Ranges or from Exmouth discover the ancient fossils and breathtaking canyons of Cape Range National Park.

The Outback Coast is renowed for its top quality fishing. Steep Point, only accessible by 4WD, is a mecca for fishermen and it the most western point in the country. The waters of Ningaloo Reef also offer exceptional fishing for anglers either trying their luck from the shore or from dropping a line from a boat.

On any trip to the Outback Coast, a visit to the Ningaloo Marine Park is a must. This prime location attracts visitors keen to explore the landscape, dive or snorkel the Ningaloo Reef, fish or simply enjoy the relaxed beach lifestyle.
