  In the Coral Sea east of Queensland and south of the Solomons lie many plateaus of coral that rise to the surface and are capped with coral islands. They are so remote and rarely visited and yet they are beautiful islands abundant with nesting birds and turtles. The difference between these islands and their counterparts on the Great Barrier Reef is that they sparkle with greater colour and contrast. The backdrop to the white plumage of the nesting birds is of green foliage a pure white beach and a blue lagoon of amazing clarity. Scuba divers have voted the Coral Sea the best dive location in the world. The visibility is a standard 50 metres of better. That's exceptional! All these attributes draw Ben Cropp to these coral isles in the month of November when the seas are calm cyclones still absent and the islands come alive with nesting birds and turtles. All this activity draws the predators. Sharks patrol the beach circling the bay over and over in the hope of scavenging a helpless chick. Such is the visibility that Ben can wait with underwater camera on the beach see a shark coming 50 metres away and duck under the water and view the oncoming shark that seemingly is right there in front of him. The green turtles mate in the coral lagoon and draw the tiger sharks in. The females are exhausted from laying at night and mating in the day and are easy prey. The males are more alert and less likely to be eaten. Ben and his team scuba dive these crystal waters with wonderful coral gardens big fish and many sharks that go into a feeding frenzy when food is available. Down in this silent world its difficult to imagine that back in 1942 this area exploded in the deafening roar of the Battle of the Coral Sea a psychological turning point in the Pacific war. It has always been a harsh world for the island wildlife in this beautiful tropical setting. The Coral Sea spawns cyclones that devastate nesting birds. Early sailing ships struck the jagged rampart and left their bones on the coral reef. Ben Cropp and his family explore this wonderful area in his vessel Freedom. It's a voyage of discovery and adventure to these emerald isles in a rainbow sea.

There are camels but the other animals that live in this oasis are very different. In Australia's vast desert area there are many an oasis. One of the most lush and beautiful is remote Palm Valley south west of Alice Springs at the headwaters of the Finke River. The desert red cliffs of the 'red centre' encroach to within 50 metres of the oasis. It has some 400 species of plants. The tall red cabbage palms dominate the oasis survivors of a wetter era the only location in the world where these rare palms Livistoria Mariea grow. Palm Valley oasis is off the beaten tourist track and this remoteness together with its rich water and fauna life makes the oasis such a special place. The wildlife population peaks in the dry season. It's the only water hole for many miles in the red desert centre of Australia. Red kangaroos wild camels and dingoes are the large animals that come to drink. Other mammal life are small and nocturnal and live at the oasis. Some are endangered - the Rufous Hare Wallaby the Bilby and the Burrowing Bettong. The most common animals are the reptiles - skinks dragon lizards sand goannas pythons and the 2 metre long monitor the second largest lizard in the world. Birds are the most conspicuous wildlife around the waterhole. Wedge-tailed eagles prey on the fish and wildlife. The clear water abounds in marine life easily filmed as the oasis lacks the man-eating crocodile. The 2 metre fresh water crocodiles are not a real threat to Ben Cropp with his underwater camera. Dingoes join the regular gathering of eagles and water birds to share the seasonal abundance of marine life food in the oasis. The landscape is like a lost world. It gives you a sense of excitement a feeling you may bump into a dinosaur around the next corner. Such desert oasis springs are the centre of the world out in the red centre of Australia exceptionally important to the aborigines. Biologically the marine creatures they harbor are amazing by any standards and the animals of surrounding desert are the toughest you will find.
