Late afternoon, we arrive at Kalbarri, which is nestled at the Murchison River mouth and surrounded by stunning coastline, soaring river gorges and protected bays.

Day 2 - Kalbarri to Monkey Mia. In Kalbarri National Park we visit the Murchison River Gorges to see The Loop and Nature’s Window; a natural rock arch that frames the upstream views. In the Shark Bay World Heritage Area, renowned for its white beaches, turquoise waters and rust-red sand dunes, marvel at astonishing world-class natural attractions, terrestrial and marine life. At Hamelin Pool we view Stromatolites, one of the earliest forms of life to evolve on our planet. Walk on the cockles covering Shell Beach and at Eagle Bluff you might spot Sharks, Stingrays, Turtles or Dugongs, and at Monkey Mia, we go for a walk along the beach to see the Dolphins. 

Day 3 - Monkey Mia to Geraldton. A very special morning, experience watching the dolphins come in close to the shore. After breakfast, walk to the beach to see dolphin feeding and hear all about their lives in Shark Bay. Join a 3 hour boat cruise to see the dolphins in their natural environment and other sea creatures of spectacular Shark Bay. After lunch, we drive to Geraldton through isolated country where we will see bushland, long straight roads, and possibly kangaroos and emus. Geraldton is a coastal city in the Mid-West region of Western Australia.

Payment Terms

COVID-19
The initial deposit is refundable for 5 days - a cooling off period long enough for us to send you precise final terms.

On receipt of your payment, we will send tour information and vouchers. Please ensure that you receive the information before you travel. Bookings made at least* less than 60 days prior to departure must be paid in full. Due to time constraints, tour information and vouchers may be collected on the first day of departure with Wildiaries from its tour guide.

Neither does Wildiaries guarantee sightings of any wild animals, even if these are listed as animals possible to see on a tour.

6. RESPONSIBILITIES
