Scuba Season
Underwater at Lighthouse Bay

Lighthouse Bay

Exmouth · Australia

A sheltered bay on the western side of the North West Cape with easy shore access and coral bommies scattered across a sandy floor. The site is known for its consistently calm conditions and reliable turtle sightings — green and hawksbill turtles feed on the seagrass and rest on the bommies. Reef fish are prolific and the site is popular for both snorkelling and introductory diving. The protected waters also make it an excellent training site.
