If you want to have a picnic, there are public barbeques which are situated on the grassed area overlooking the main beach, and is a very picturesque spot for viewing the sun sets. Although most facilities are within walking distance, quad bikes are a popular way to get around so you can explore the beaches, bays and trails in the area.

 Treks passing Coral Bay

Minilya Exmouth Road Minilya Exmouth Road
This sealed road trek is suited for vehicles towing caravans and camper trailers heading to Exmouth from Coral Bay. The Minilya Exmouth Road heads north of Coral Bay for over 150kms passing the massive Learmonth RAAF Base & Airport and Kailis Fisheries.
Ningaloo Reef Adventure Ningaloo Reef Adventure
Just about every West Australian has heard of Ningaloo, but surprisingly, its an oddity to most other Australians. Located between Exmouth and Coral Bay about 1200km north of Perth, Ningaloo is about 300 km long and is the largest fringing coral reef in Australia. [Feature Story]
Perth to Coral Bay Perth to Coral Bay
This highway based trek note follows Route No. One up the WA coast to the tourist Mecca of Coral Bay. Take in the coastal towns of the Batavia Coast, including Dongara and Geraldton - maybe staying overnight or two before reaching the southern gateway to the Ningaloo Reef.

Purdy Point is about 500m south of Bill's Bay and provides a safe swimming beach with fantastic snorkelling. Fletcher’s Hill marks the end of the sanctuary zone for beach fishing so this is permitted here. Please stay away from offshore channel markers because there can be a lot of boating activity here.
