In addition to sharks, barracuda, rays, and fishes, we had also spotted Double-crested Cormorants , Brown Pelicans , and Magnificent Frigatebirds.

The surrounding waters are also home to Whale Sharks year-round and on my recent visit I was very fortunate to hop overboard after coming across not one, but two, of these gentle giants. Swimming with a whale shark on the boat-trip to Isla Isabel. Also present are six species of reptiles, including the numerous Brown Iguanas. .

Shark Bay is one of the most famous tourist destinations in West Australia, and until recently was therefore not a place I was particularly interested in visiting. Shark Bay is pretty. Shark Bay is an enormous feature, a huge bay surrounded by deserty-scrub right on the edge of the tropics. And anyone that likes birds too!
