About this place
There are two kayak moorings in Bundegi Sanctuary Zone that you can tie up to and snorkel Bundegi Reef.
A 3.5km paddle (about one hour) south along the inside of Bundegi Reef will take you to two moorings. Nook and Crannies: 21° 51.751'S, 114° 09.613'E; The Cove: 21° 51.536'S, 114° 09.739'E. It is recommended to snorkel during high tide only as sites can be shallow during low tide. Site depth ranges from 1.5m to 3m. From the mooring return north along the coast to the boat ramp. Allow four hours, including snorkelling.
The beach is in a Recreation Zone of Ningaloo Marine Park where recreational fishing from the shore is permitted.
Bundegi also has a boat launching area to access Exmouth Gulf, Ningaloo Marine Park, Muiron Islands and Pilbara Inshore Islands.
