About 25 mins out of Townsville you can swim in cool (but not too cold!), fresh water watering hole with fish & turtles in a National Park. It is called Alligator Creek. Some kids were going down the small rapids on tyre inner tubes. It was a busy day when we went...







Stepping on a cloud:

Great pics!

Hope that all is well in the world of med

Looks very nice,but may be worth asking why it is called Alligator Creek.

fab pics esp the cloud one

but why was my first thought - where's the lifeguard?

my second was - aligators????

Hi Danny - lovely photos as always! Return to work on Tuesday - bruises an all! My poor patients are gonna wonder what hit them - or rather who hit me!! Planning a hol up your way for the end of the year - will def make a trip to magnetic Island. can't wait. Take care annie

Keep the pics coming danny,good on ya mate

Don't care how beautiful it looks or how fab the water is, it's called Alligator Creek for a very good reason presumably. You wouldn't catch me there. Not sure they can tell the difference between turtles and humans.

Cracking pics though

Fantastic Photo's Hoping to head for Townsville sometime soon, looks like a fab place to go.

Thanks guys. No lifeguards @ Alligator Ck, I'm afraid but more importantly no alligators in Australia! This inland watering hole is croc-free too.

Wunjunga is about 1.5 hrs south of Townsville. We visited a friend who has a beach hut there. Great time had by all. The weather is becoming more settled now the wet season is coming to an end. Stinger season is over in 6 weeks.
