Montgomery Reef, W A

Montgomery Reef is located in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia. It is Australia’s largest inshore reef at more than 400 km². The reef is subject to unusual tidal movements. When the tide is out vast lagoons, sandstone islets and a central mangrove island are revealed. The outward movement of the tide forms a loud torrent of water, creating a river cutting through the reef and hundreds of cascading waterfalls. At low tide more than four metres of reef can be exposed.

Montgomery Reef offers a stunning array of marine life. Here you may see whales, dolphins, dugong, turtles, manta rays and the black tipped reef shark cruising along the reef ledges.
