  • OF the TOWNSVILLE REGION LAKE ROSS the Beautiful Lake Ross Stores Over 200,000 Megalitres of Water and Supplies up to 80% of Townsville’S Drinking Water
    BIRDS OF THE TOWNSVILLE REGION LAKE ROSS The beautiful Lake Ross stores over 200,000 megalitres of water and supplies up to 80% of Townsville’s drinking water. The Ross River Dam wall stretches 8.3km across the Ross River floodplain, providing additional flood mitigation benefit to downstream communities. The Dam’s extensive shallow margins and fringing woodlands provide habitat for over 200 species of birds. At times, the number of Australian Pelicans, Black Swans, Eurasian Coots and Hardhead ducks can run into the thousands – a magic sight to behold. The Dam is also the breeding area for the White-bellied Sea-Eagle and the Osprey. The park around the Dam and the base of the spillway are ideal habitat for bush birds. The borrow pits across the road from the dam also support a wide variety of water birds for some months after each wet season. Lake Ross and the borrow pits are located at the end of Riverway Drive, about 14km past Thuringowa Central. Birds likely to be seen include: Australasian Darter, Little Pied Cormorant, Australian Pelican, White-faced Heron, Little Egret, Eastern Great Egret, Intermediate Egret, Australian White Ibis, Royal Spoonbill, Black Kite, White-bellied Sea-Eagle, Australian Bustard, Rainbow Lorikeet, Pale-headed Rosella, Blue-winged Kookaburra, Rainbow Bee-eater, Helmeted Friarbird, Yellow Honeyeater, Brown Honeyeater, Spangled Drongo, White-bellied Cuckoo-shrike, Pied Butcherbird, Great Bowerbird, Nutmeg Mannikin, Olive-backed Sunbird. White-faced Heron ROSS RIVER The Ross River winds its way through Townsville from Ross Dam to the mouth of the river near the Townsville Port.

    SOUTHERN SEA VENTURES AUSTRALIA Hinchinbrook Island Group North Queensland Paddling Adventure Seven day trip SOUTHERN SEA VENTURES Australia: Hinchinbrook Island Group Seven day sea kayak trip Hinchinbrook Island, Goold Island and the Family Islands are located along the tropical coast between Ingham and Tully in North Queensland. Hinchinbrook's 39,000 hectares makes it Australia's largest island national park and part of the Great Barrier Reef UNESCO World Heritage listing, due to its unique fora and fauna. With granite peaks rising 1142 metres directly out of the sea, Hinchinbrook Island is a magnifcent backdrop for sea kayaking. Waterfalls, tropical rainforests, precipitous headlands, coral reefs and secluded beaches are among the island’s treasures. The island is perhaps the last remnant of the eastern coastline that remains exactly as it was before white settlement of Australia. After four to fve days exploring Hinchinbrook Island, our paddles continue north to Goold Island. We camp with beautiful views of the Family Islands to the north and the towering peaks of Hinchinbrook to the south. From Goold we continue north to picturesque Wheeler Island, one of the Family Island group. We spend our last night here before paddling to Dunk Island for our fnal lunch. From there it is a short paddle back to mainland Australia where we make landfall at South Mission Beach and end our trip. Using our specially designed sea kayaks, we paddle approximately 90 kilometres over seven days. Most days allow for some island time in the afternoon to walk, snorkel or just relax in a hammock. Each evening ends with a gourmet meal cooked by our skilled guides who are just as handy with a chef’s knife as they are with a paddle.
