You can expect to see freshwater crocodiles basking on the beach in the sunshine. There are two campgrounds. A campground for tour operators, and those who require generators. The Quiet Campground is for people without generators. Both campgrounds have showers, flushing toilets, drinking water and fireplaces.​

TUNNEL CREEK
Western Australia's oldest cave system, in Tunnel Creek National Park, is famous as a hideout used late last century by the Aboriginal leader Jandamarra. Many aboriginal rock paintings and speleothems are present in the cave decorating the walls.

You can walk through the tunnel to the other side of the Napier Range. The trek runs underground for 750 metres and you have to wade through several permanent pools and return the same way. The roof has collapsed through to the top of the range near the centre of the tunnel. Take a torch, wear sneakers and be prepared to get wet and possibly cold.
