2024 The Lap

We made it to one of our bucket list items. It was great to see and feel this unique natural phenomenon. We were dropped off in the early afternoon at Derby Airport and boarded a Cessna 208. Thirty minutes later, we landed in the beautiful blue waters of Talbot Bay. All the activities on the tour revolve around tide times. First, we got to see the Tawney Nurse Sharks and Bull Sharks that live in the bay. We then boarded a power boat and sped through the first falls (both directions) before viewing the second narrower falls from the white water. From here, we began a pleasant sunset cruise down Poulton Creek, enjoying the area's landscape, geology and history.
Back on the houseboat, we enjoyed nibbles and then the very yummy barramundi dinner.
The following day, we were up early for a 6 am breakfast and another trip on the speedboat through the falls. At 7am, we again boarded the seaplane for an hour-long scenic flight over the falls, Talbot Bay and King Sound.Okumaya devam et
