The park visitor centre has displays, audiovisuals and brochures about the park and Ningaloo Reef. Toilets and snacks available. There's a Telstra Wifi hotspot.
These putter up the creek once or twice a day for a one-hour cruise. They sail from the creek jetty but their office is in Exmouth, and they can bring you in a minibus ($40 pp including park fee) to meet the boat. This service can also drop off / pick up at Turquoise Beach.
This is glamping, very upmarket wedding or honeymoon fare in tents or lodges, open April-Oct. No pets.
The only approach is by the 50 km coast road from Exmouth, which is the nearest place with public transport. Most visitors simply day-trip from there. There's no fuel in the park so think about the getting back.
Read in the guideThe access road along the coast of the Cape is sealed and suitable for all vehicles including mobile homes. It's called Yardie Creek Road from the point it leaves Murat Road at the entrance to the Naval Comms Station.
