Twin Falls – Kakadu

Twin Falls is one of the prettiest places you can imagine. You used to be able to swim here, but that has now closed permanently. It would have been classified as “The Best!” if you could have. They say it is for crocodiles, but the guide we had said it was also because the indigenous owners decided it was inappropriate. An amazing beach, massive gorge, two waterfalls cascading down (very seasonal and somewhat dry when we there) it is paradise. What is the downside?

Well apart from the lack of swimming, the answer is the drive there! It is strictly 4WD only, plus a creek crossing. When we did it it was 700mm, but it gets deeper. Snorkels are a must, and raised vehicles even better. I saw a lot of people driving over there without a snorkel, get some water in there and your car could easily stall in the water… full of crocs… insanity.

Even with a snorkel 700mm is my personal absolute limit, be prepared to get your carpet wet.
