As our Zodiac skims across the Indian Ocean, Ngalangie – Montgomery Reef peeks above the surface in the distance. As we draw closer, the majestic 400-square-kilometre reef rises before me, taking my breath away. Water cascades down well-gouged grooves into thousands of waterfalls. Turtles are feasting around us on the algae and seagrass that’s washing off the reef. Ngalangie – Montgomery Reef is the world’s largest inshore reef, and its remarkable corals can survive above the water for hours a day during the Kimberley’s massive tidal cycles. Experiences
