Bunker Bay
A curved white-sand bay on the eastern side of Cape Naturaliste, facing north, with calm, clear water. It has a resort and a beachside restaurant.
Bunker Bay lies on the northeastern side of Cape Naturaliste. It is a curved white-sand bay about 2 km long. Facing north, it is sheltered from the big Indian Ocean swells, and its bright blue, clear water is ideal for swimming, snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding. At the eastern end is a snorkeling area called “Shark Reef.” The name sounds alarming, but it is mostly reef fish. The bay has a resort and a beachside restaurant, where ocean-view lunches are popular. Admission is free, but there are no lifeguards, so children playing in the water need adult supervision. It is about 10 minutes' drive from Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse, so the two can be visited on the same day.
