Blue Holes

Check conditions carefully in advance

You really need ideal conditions to enjoy this place: a low tide and little wind. I came on a day when it was sunny, but the tide was in and wind was blowing. The water was quite sandy and opaque...

Great snorkel in protected reef

Went for a snorkel, well worth the visit, fresh clear water, waves crashing in the distance but amazing fish swimming in this spot

Last resort swim

It’s one of the few places to swim safely at Kalbarri, which is why the Blue Holes will be packed with people when you visit. Good for a dip or a beginner snorkel but hard to love it.

Get the time and tide right

We visited three times to find: 1 high tide with rough water 2 high wind giving us sand blasted ankles 3 good conditions = early morning + low tide

Too Windy to enjoy

Low tide, lots of wind. On a nice day would have been great but this afternoon it was unpleasant as the wind was sand blasting our legs. Will try again tomorrow...
