Underwater Recommendations

Named the Gateway to the Dampier Archipelago and the Montebello Islands, Karratha has very unspoiled diving to offer. Highly diverse coral reefs fringe the islands, drop-offs teem with tropical life and pelagics hang out in the blue. Turtles, manta rays, stingrays and the occasional Leopard Shark are no strangers to this part of the world.
