Looking For A Holiday Getaway For Easter

I am fortunate enough to live here at Mount Bundy Station and although I have traveled extensively around Australia over the years, I must say Mount Bundy is spectacular and has all the adventures and luxuries any body could ever want. I have never been happier since coming here to live and Scott and Sue Witham the Owners have welcomed us with open arms just as they do with all their visitors and holidaying folk.

So Many Outdoor Activities For All Ages

One of the main reasons my wife Sandra and I have decided to live here on the stationĀ  full time is the beautiful setting along with all the many activities available to us here. Any one who knows me knows that I am an avid fisherman, well my friends the fishing here is extremely good and we feast on Barramundi along with Cherabin prawns regularly.

Mount Bundy Station being such a great place gets thousands of people in caravans enjoying a stopover as they travel around Australia and many of these are regular annual visitors who spend a few months here to escape the cold winter months down south. We get to meet and make friends with people from all over the world and from all walks of life.

Some come here for the relaxing atmosphere while others enjoy such things as

  • Bird watching
  • Photography
  • Horse rides and trecking
  • Bush walking
  • Fishing
  • Sunsets and hilltop tours

A truly spectacular place that you should experience for yourself. since I have been here there has been 4 weddings take place and so far this year they already have 2 booked for later in the year. With the Easter holiday break coming up soon Mount Bundy Station could be just the place to visit, I certainly can endorse it personally . Let me finish this post with a couple of shots taken on the station. and if you do visit please look me up and say hi.

Why I Live Where I Live

I am a lover of nature and the outdoors, so perhaps you will now understand why I live where I live. The station is just 1 hrs drive from Darwin’s International Airport and many visitors fly to Darwin, hire a vehicle and spend time here using Mount Bundy Accomodation while they visit KakaduĀ  and Litchfeild National Parks. Both of these being within 1 hour away with bitumin access to them all.

Where To Find The Worlds Biggest Crocodile In Captivity

Cassius as he is known can be found at Green Island’s Marineland Melanesia in Australia. Cassius was bought here from the Northern Territory in 1987 and now measures a massive 5.48 meters in length.

Up until just recently Cassius was in second place to another Massive Crocodile in the Philippines called Lolong who measured 6.17 meters long and unfortunately died from causes yet to be determined. Lolong has been estimated by experts to be in excess of 50years old, and even though Lolong was a very big crocodile he still could have grown more had he not fallen ill and passed away.

Cassius Is Now World Champion

There was a lot of controversy over who exactly held the record back in 2011 between the Northern Territory and Queens land, as Cassius originally came from the Northern Territory. Cassius has always ran second to the late Lolong though for being The Worlds Biggest Crocodile In Captivity and is now the holder of the crown.

So my friends you may become just a little more wary after knowing what kind of monsters are lurking in the water when you are fishing in the tropics . You would have no chance what so ever against one of these guy’s and in fact a crocodile of just 2meters could perhaps do you in. Enjoy your fishing and never ever become complacent,always be aware of where you are and what you are doing.
