Description:North of Town Beach, this spot is used by fishermen to launch their dinghies to go up Crab Creek at high tide. It is named after the Catalina Flying Boat wrecks, six of which are visible at tides less than 0.86m. It is recommended you allow an hour to walk to out to the wrecks, and an hour to return to shore.
Usage Restriction:The Kimberley Coast has the biggest tides in the southern hemisphere. The difference between high and low tides is up to around 10 metres. Low tides offer the best chance to see dinosaur footprints, the flying boat wrecks and the staircase to the moon while knowing when the tide is high can save you getting your car stranded on the beach!
