C0RAL BAY Coral Bay does not qualify under our rules for a location. But this is such a fantastic place we decided to list. The Ningaloo Reef is a popular diving and snorkeling site with a large variety of coral and fish life and is one of the best places to see whale sharks and manta rays. The migration of the humpback whales is also viewable from June to October. The place is dynamic and has a lot to offer. Not the least a look at the coral reef. A resort, sensational beach and shops make the visit very easy to take. Spend a few days at Coral Bay and be sure to the coral boat trip at a minimum.
