Views of amazing scenery and abundant wildlife are yours on this four day tour from Perth to Exmouth. Enjoy partaking in adventure activities and exploring coastal highlights on your journey along the stunning west coast of Australia.

Head north from Perth along the Western Australia coastline. See spectacular white beaches, the wild dolphins of Monkey Mia and the coral reef of Ningaloo. This tour is definitely one of Western Australia's best shorter duration adventure tours with good accommodation and meals as you explore all the coastal highlights between Perth and Exmouth.

Kalbarri National Park encompasses the lower reaches of the mighty Murchison River and winds its way through spectacular red gorges to the Indian Ocean. Soak in the impressive scenery from the best vantage points the park has to offer including, Z Bend and The Loop. A visit to this park is a must for nature lovers, as you can admire the result of many millions of years of geological formation.

Monkey Mia is located within the Shark Bay Heritage Reserve. This is the location where wild Bottlenose Dolphins come to interact with people and it is important to note that the dolphins that regularly visit the bay, visit of their own free will. Locals have been feeding the dolphins here since the 1960's and if you're lucky, you too can feed fish to these friendly mammals.
