4/5 - Good

Beautiful but deadly. Crocodiles, bull sharks and box jelly fish (during the wet season) make it extremely dangerous to enter the waters close to shore. There are netted swimming areas but they don’t stop the tiny irukandji jelly fish. To be safe you should wear a stinger suit or just stay out of the water. The Barrier Reef is much safer but stinger suits are required at certain times of the year.
