This is the type of crocodile that is found in the sea near us. The life guard said he had only seen two on that bit of beach in 8 years, so not a huge risk. Still you wouldn't want to meet one of these whilst having a relaxing swim.
- Australian saltwater crocodiles are the largest reptile in the world in terms of mass (can be over 1000kg), the males can reach a length of up to 6 or 7 metres.
- The other main risk is the box jellyfish, but the risk of those today was also apparently low. However if you met one, it could kill you!!
All that aside it was a beautiful beach and we had a nice day.
