Hamelin Bay in Margaret River Region is officially my favourite beach in Australia (at least so far).
Glittering blue sea, shiny white sand, so smooth that even I don’t moan walking in bare feet. See for yourself …
Where is the excitement?
Hamelin Bay is home to some of the ‘vacuum cleaners of the ocean floor’. Yes, indeed: Rays.
Smooth stingrays, black stingrays and eagle rays inhabit the shallow waters of Hamelin Bay. And they are not shy, swimming up very close to people standing in the water
Wonderful just to stay and watch. And yes, a few times I had to jump back to not being touched.
