    Truly beautiful place, heavily frequented by tourists but still worth visiting. Don't be concerned by the sign telling you about the crocodile, it's just a "Freshie" (fresh water crocodile) the are shy fish eaters with no interest in nibbling on humans, even children are safe so long as they are left well alone.
