Arrow Crocodile Express Tour option Sun 29 May 2011

Crocodile Express Tour

For those who prefer a leisurely Sunday lie in another option would be to just do the Jumping Crocs Cruise only (ie leaving out the Corroboree Billabong Cruise) but still joining the rest of your fellow FTers. You would leave the the Holiday Inn Esplanade at 1130 Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza at 1135 then return at the same time as the other tour in post #655 above around 1530-1600 dropping off at both hotel locations. The cost below also covers your return shuttle transfers from the CBD to the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets late afternoon/early evening.

Cost per person AUD50.00

Mindil Beach Sunset Markets
For those folk not doing either the Corroboree Billabong & Croc Cruise or the Crocodile Express Tour we will depart for the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets from the Holiday Inn Esplanade at 1700 and the Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza at 1705.

There are a large amount of arts and craft stalls which is ideal for souvenir shopping as it's quality stuff not gimicky. There are also plenty of food stalls for dinner & although alcohol is not for sale there you can certainly BYO which is popular thing to do while watching the sunset on the beach.

We will return from the markets to our city hotels at approximately 2000 hours where people will have the option of going to a restaurant if they wish. I think it's probably a good idea to not overschedule everyone for dinner tonight so we can 'go with the flow'.
