    The first ones were eastern greys, they are everywhere down the east coast. I very regularly see a mob across from my house. They can get fairly large, the ones you saw were probably teenagers. The alpha will be about as tall ass you, and built like a brick shyt house, muscly as all buggery.
    The reds you see more in the outback. Reds are bigger, but as i say, only in the outback.
    Wllabies are everywhere, and are smaller, but there are heaps and heaps of different types. They arent as easy to see, even though they are everywhere, they are a lot more shy than roos.

    Hey Gab, that’s a stinger net. Stops you getting stung by jellyfish.. definitely would not keep the crocks out. But most beaches are fine to swim at. The beaches that are not are ones that have a river off them/close by as that’s where saltwater crocks live.. the edge of fresh and salt water. Usually it’s just rivers you shouldn’t swim in.

    Crocs are one thing, at least you might be able to see the buggers, if and when they come for you; however, the Box Jelly Fish and its tiny cousin the Irukandji, will ruin your day and likely your life. The sting of the Irukandji is so devastating and the pain so lingering, that victims have been known to beg to have limbs amputated to be rid of the pain. Hence, the fine net at the swimming enclosure at Trinity Beach. Just sayin'... Cheers from Sydney. P.S. thanks Gabriel for walking us through that cool animal park and getting close-ups of those amazing critters. Happy travels mate.

    Crocodiles actually nearly went extinct in Australia. They were hunted and seen as little more than 'pests'. These days, their numbers have fully recovered and the campaign to bring them back is probably one of the most successful environmental campaigns ever. Whilst I cannot imagine living with them around (I, like most Aussies, am from the south of the continent where the weather is much friendlier) I am still glad that we managed to stop them from going extinct. The crocs have really saved the river systems up there too - you can find all sorts of fish whose populations were kept in check by apex predators. I really hope you are enjoying our country mate. I'm sorry it's such an expensive place to visit. And always swim between the flags. :)

    Never heard of anyone being taken by a crocodile in the ocean. Rivers and creeks are where it happens. Even so there's always the deadly jelly fish which are less prevalent May to October. You'd be unlucky to be stung in April,
    Crocs are known to sun themselves on the beach but on the main beaches near Cairns the beach patrols quickly put up a warning.
    All in all it's probably easier to stick to the pool

    Great video. Very interesting. Sampled a bit of Australia so brings back good memories. A once in a life to experience with the distance and prices. Great to watch your travels.

    It’s school holidays for two weeks now and Easter in Aussie so every tourist venue will be greying to get double money for everything. FYI lots of accommodation gets booked up and very expensive.

    Have you ever though to make each of your video covers into t-shirt, postcard, photo framed, etc? They all look very nice.

    Beaches free of Crocs is usually to do with tides, in Broome fir example there is none at Cable beach but plently close by. I'd rather have Crocodiles protected instead of being extinct in Australia, you can go offshore to islands and swim without a problem near Cairns. The reef about 50 nautical miles off the main harbour is the best spot I've ever dived at.

    Take your swimming gear to enjoy Mossman Gorge. There are two ways to get up to the head of Mossman Gorge from the car park/Visitors Centre, either in a bus or you can walk up the road.

    My understanding is that, if you drove a few miles inland, there would be kangaroos everywhere, like deer in the US.

    Crocs are not the only danger in Northern Australian beaches. Marine Stingers aka Box Jellyfish is present lot of the beaches and they have swimming areas that are netted off to stop the big box Jellyfish.
    But Northern Australia also has the small version called Irukandji, a really small jellyfish that has enough venom to kill you and nets can’t stop them. Irukandji is a deadly serious marine stinger that can inflict enormous pain and death and you can’t even see it.
    Crocs are easier to spot unlike Box Jellyfish or Irukandji.
    Port Douglas has serious risk of Saltwater Crocs lurking on the beach and sand.
