Last day in Exmouth

More exploring and out on a glass bottomed boat over the coral - (no decent photos I'm afraid).

Exmouth

Further up the highway and arrived at Exmouth - decided to do a Sunset Cruise to try and spot whales, with success! Two odd things - a whale either sleeping or breast feeding by hanging vertically in the water, and a calf on its own slapping the water trying to find its mother, which it did in the end...

Around Kalbarri

Visited places along the coast, south of Kalbarri - spectacular scenery and whales and dolphons (in quite close) out the sea. Then in the afternoon into Kalbarri National Park to view some of the gorges along the Murchison River.
