About this caravan park

The Lighthouse Shell Gallery, prominently positioned at the entrance of Ningaloo Lighthouse Caravan Park, houses one of the state's largest private shell collections. It notably exhibits a prehistoric shark tooth and the globe's largest giant helmet shell. The gallery showcases a comprehensive assortment of species' shells gathered over the past 50 years, offering visitors engaging and educational insights. The collection, meticulously curated by Jim Figgis, also sells souvenirs, encouraging guests to bring a piece of their visit home.

Here you will find of the largest private shell collections on display in the state. This extensive collection of shells has been in Exmouth for the past 50 years and is a credit to Jim Figgis who ran it for many years. There is also a prehistoric shark tooth dating back millions of years and a giant helmet shell (reputedly the largest in the world) to have a look at. Lots of little ‘species’ adorn the cabinets and make for interesting talking points. Come in for a squiz and maybe pick up a souvenir or two.
