Heading back to the coast we went to see the lighthouse positioned at Cape Leeuwin where the Indian & Southern Ocean meet.
Only a short drive away is Hamelin Bay which we had already seen last time we were in this area. Hamelin Bay is well known for spotting Stingrays off the beach as well as a great swimming beach. As the water was quite choppy last time, were weren't able to take any photos, so decided to give this a go this time. Below the evidence.
The Stingrays are amazing and actually come very close to the beach (ankle to knee deep water) and if you keep still and are brave enough you can touch them (even you're not suppose to) - they sometimes also just come close to your legs and brush you. A lot of fishermen feed them the left over fish heads.
Great experience and a must-do if you ever go to Western Australia.
