Blue Holes

Blue Holes is a sheltered coastal snorkeling site located about 5 km south of Kalbarri in the Shire of Northampton, Western Australia. Formed by reef-protected rock pools along the Indian Ocean coastline, it is known for clear shallow water and abundant marine life. Part of the Blue Holes Fish Habitat Protection Area, it offers accessible shore snorkeling at low tide and is a popular natural attraction near Kalbarri town and Kalbarri National Park.

Visitors can expect a natural reef-protected beach with shallow turquoise rock pools and sandy patches at low tide. The site features a small car park and short walk to the shoreline with views of the Indian Ocean and limestone coast. At low tide, calm pools allow shore snorkeling to see fish and coral; at high tide the area is exposed to waves and not suitable for swimming. The surroundings are open coastal scrub with no shops or lifeguard services.
