Some of the many vistas
Many Crocodiles

The highlights for me were King Cascades and the rock pools and cascades above the main falls. The Horizontal Falls, even though we had been there before the thrill of running the falls with a 1.5 metre drop and also Montgomery Reef. Watching the water cascade off the centre of this huge reef in numerous cascades was mind blowing and seeing the turtles feeding along side our tenders was fascinating.

Montgomery Reef

We have seen rock art that is dated back to 20000 years before the last know aboriginal tribes were living in this area and we have cruised past crocodiles sunning themselves on the river banks. 21 in an hour on our last croc spotting episode.

Montgomery Reef is the worlds largest inshore reef. When the tide falls the reef emerges to rise from the ocean in a torrent of cascading water. The tide here can drop up to 8 metres. The reef is around 400 square Kilometres and supports a variety of marine life, including turtles and whales.
