Shark Bay
Shark bay |
- Shark Bay is the most westerly point on the coast of Australia-although possibly less well-known than the most easterly point, Byron Bay. Inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1991, it covers an area of 2.3 million hectares including a number of peninsulas, islands, bays and inlets. Like the Wet Tropics of Queensland, the Great Barrier Reef and the Tasmanian Wilderness, it fulfills all four criteria of natural values.
