Near the unmatched Ningaloo Reef (where you can snorkel with whale sharks) is Coral Bay. This water is so shallow you can walk practically all the way across the bay. It's a beautiful place to relax after your journey through a lot of nothingness to get here :) #beachbound
Is called "5 fingers". Those  beaches can be reached by a 4WD track from the jetti parking. Easy to follow the map. The track is just a few km but some parts have really soft sand. 
Good for snorkelling.
Ningaloo Reef is right off the beach in Coral Bay. You can bring your own snorkel gear and there's no need to book a tour or hire a boat.

The reef is outstanding and has a variety of marine life. In my opinion, it's more impressive than the Great Barrier Reef.
