Shark Bay

Reviewed By annettelaurie - Plymouth, United Kingdom

Shark Bay - We left Billabong Roadhouse and drove on up the Highway until we reached the turn off for Shark Bay, known to the local Malgana people as Gutharraguda, meaning two bays. It is a World Heritage listed site for its beauty and abundant prehistoric life forms, evolution in action and wildlife refuges. It is made up of the Francois Peron National Park, the Shark Bay Marine Park and Hamelin Pool Marine Nature Reserve. Nearby is Shell Beach, a Discovery Centre, Eagle Bluff and a Discovery Trail - this is a great place for families - all the above is free and you get to see some amazing things and learn a little too. It is a sleepy little place but well worth driving from attraction to attraction over a couple of days.

Little Lagoon

Reviewed By Perthygirl - Perth, Australia

Peaceful and pristine, a perfect spot to go with kids. We taught our young one how to use a fishing rod and even caught a small fish! It was lovely to set up the 4WD on the sand, pull out the awning and spend the afternoon playing in the water and on the sand. There are amenities there too. A lovely sunset marked the end of a relaxing day spent at the lagoon. You won’t regret a visit to this lagoon :)

Hamelin Pool Marine Nature Reserve

Reviewed By geoffandjan06 - Bridgetown, Australia

Hamelin Pool is only one of two places in the world where living marine Stromatolites are known to exist. A boardwalk has been constructed so you get a good view of them. A must if you are ever in Sharks Bay.

Stromatolites of Shark Bay

Reviewed By BHW4006PP

...like the person who wrote the “Interesting...but” review below (PeterM). The stromatolites are truly fascinating; they exist just as their descendants did 3.5 billion years ago, and Shark Bay is one of the only (and arguably the best) place on Earth to see them alive still. These things literally created the Earth’s atmosphere and air you breathe so make sure you say thanks and don’t leave a 3-star review on tripadvisor
