Hi Nedly,

Cheers,

Temple bay will take a minimum of a full day to get in and out xina as the road is not the best last i heard.

From what I can gather from national Parks is that Bookings must be made about 12 months in advance and I think is booked out at 2 week blocks.

Thanks Campdog, i forgot about that. When i rang Cooktown Nat Parks office a couple of months ago, they said the only vacancy they had was in December. So it is booked well in advance normally. If it was part of the tag-a-long, bookings would have to be done not too far away in the future.

I figured 4 full days at Punsand would allow for:-
D1 - Photo opp at the Tip, and the beach run.
D2 - T.I.
D3 - Charter Fishing
D4 - What ever, general look around.

I've been working on the theory there may be first timers with us on the tour, might want to check out the wrecks etc.

My must do's for '09 are the photo opp. with the rest of the croc crew and charter fishing (watch out bat, I'm coming).

No problem, i was just wondering. The guys and gals could also be split up into 2 groups and do different things so all would have an opportunity to fish and so on.

For eg.
Group one could go to T.I. while group 2 could do the tip and somerset. Next day swap around.
