Florence falls and Buley rock pool offer very different swimming experiences. Go in the wet season and you'll be hard pressed to swim under the waterfall; the force of the cascade creates a natural water treadmill, allowing one to swim on the spot. Compare this with the more sedate pleasures of Buley where a cluster of shallow pools in a fast flowing river create an antidote to the wildness ofFflorence, more like a natural jacuzzi. All in 32 degree heat and totally crocdile free!
