TC Narelle Travel And Local Roads Update
SHARK BAY IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS
Shark Bay is open for business and we warmly welcome all visitors to our region.
We’d like to provide an update regarding the current fuel situation. At present, fuel is available locally; however, supply is being managed on a day-by-day basis. As such, we are unable to offer guarantees or predictions about availability beyond today.
Local fuel outlets are operating with the same limited visibility and are unable to provide forward guidance or predictions on local fuel stocks.
To help ensure a smooth and enjoyable visit, we encourage travellers to arrive as self-sufficient as possible, including planning for potential intermittent fuel shortages. The nearest alternative fuel stop is the Overlander Roadhouse, approximately 130km from Shark Bay.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation, and look forward to welcoming you to experience everything Shark Bay has to offer.
