Time-lapse video captures beauty of Ningaloo Marine Park
While it may not get as much attention as the famous Great Barrier Reef, Ningaloo Marine Park is arguably just as spectacular a place to visit.
Encompassing 260km of fringing reef off Western Australia’s mid north coast, Ningaloo Marine Park provides perfect conditions for snorkelling and whale watching.
This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to over 200 species of hard coral, 50 species of soft coral, 500 species of fish and the spectacular whale shark.
And, as we can see in the video above, you don’t necessarily have to get your hair wet to experience the unparalleled beauty of this special part of the world.
Filmed over the course of 40 hours at Coral Bay, this time-lapse video encompasses two sun sets, sun rises and spectacular moon rises over an untouched stretch of sand.
It’s amazing to see the way the pollution-free sky changes in colour as the day progresses, so make sure you watch the whole video.
