Willie Creek Pearl Farm

Willie Creek was really nice. Aqua Blue water, nice cafe and showroom. There are 2 resident Crocodiles here - 1 female and a male...about 3 metres long. They say this is there protection from pearl thieves.

 We went on a quick helicopter ride over the creek. It was awesome! We could see sharks in the water and schools of fish too.

    Claire and Chris, what fantastic photos, it must have been wonderful to fly above Willie Creek and see it that way. Reminds me of our helicopter ride over the Franz Joseph Glacier in NZ there is nothing like it.
    LOVE the pearl necklace too, lucky girl XX Mum XX
