Coral Bay Trail

Transplan Pty Ltd has been appointed by the Gascoyne Development Commission to prepare a detailed trail development plan for a section of the (proposed) much longer Baiyungu Track. The section of trail under consideration is between Bill’s Bay Lookout (in Coral Bay townsite) south to the new boat launching facility – approximately 1700m south of the settlement. The trail, if/when constructed, will traverse an intricate and sensitive dune area and will provide outstanding views out over the World Heritage Listed Ningaloo Reef. A new viewing platform is proposed to replace the aging and deteriorating viewing platform at Coral Bay. Several other viewing platforms are proposed at strategic and high points on the dunes along the trail. This trail is regarded as Stage 1 of the Baiyungu Track which is proposed to extend all the way along the coast from Exmouth to Carnarvon.
