Kununurra Croc Country

Camped at the Lions Park at the top of the hill (as the lower waterfront area had the dreaded NO CAMPING sign posted at the end). Came back down in the morning and parked right on the grassy waters edge. The dog had a ball looking for fish and watching the swiftly passing current. Still no sightings of crocs, but as we’re in the lower dam, in the salties area, I’m quite happy of that!

Ventured into town when we could drag ourselves away from the lovely waterside location. The banks are covered in large pandanus trees, paperbarks and lovely acacias currently in flower and smelling so beautifully sweet. The birds are prolific. We’ve seen the largest eagles, cockies and shags we’ve ever seen.

The town is manicured and clean and it has a good range of shops for the size of the town. We’ve been spending most of our time at the Boab Tree Book Cafe. They sell the most amazing muffins and have many books in the café section that they invite you to come each day and read while you’re having lunch etc.
