After another washing and shopping stopover in Carnarvon we did the 4 hour drive north to Warroora Station. We had a lovely camp spot right overlooking beautiful turquoise water and a spectacular reef, but it was extremely windy which is only good for one thing........windsurfing!! Sean didn't waste much time getting out there! In the evening we cooked a turkey leg stew in the camp oven (2 legs for $4 from woolies...bargain!!) and Sean taught us a song in french that he had written called "Ou est la dinde?" (Where is the turkey?)
The next day we did a short drive to Coral Bay. This tiny holiday town consists of one main street, 2 caravan parks and hundreds of people. We had tried to book camp sites in advance but the first available sites were weeks away. Luckily we were able to pick up 2 unpowered sites (at 2 different parks) when we arrived on July 29th (Happy birthday Aunty Melanie!) There was still a bit of wind up so Sean went windsurfing while the rest of us swam and snorkeled at the main beach which was enclosed by a reef and full of huge Spangled Emperors. Coral Bay is at the southern tip of Ningaloo Marine Park and the white sand and blue waters were amazingly beautiful.
