Mackerel Islands

A holiday to the Mackerel Islands provides a rare nature wilderness experience boasting world–class fishing, snorkelling, boating, bird watching and serious time to disconnect. Thevenard Island offers accommodation and access to an extraordinary experience, where rugged adventure meets refreshing isolation. Watch sea turtles haul themselves up the beach to lay eggs, glimpse dolphins and whales playing in the blue-green waters, admire the kaleidoscope of colourful fish, crabs and stingrays among the coral reefs while you snorkel, or reel in the catch of your life from the Pilbara’s fishiest waters. Then as the sun goes down and the night sky lights up with a dusting of silver, you can simply stargaze in awe and breathe in the quietness. Located a short 45 minute ferry from Onslow, or 35 minute scenic flight from Exmouth, this is the amazing, off the beaten track experience you have been looking for.
