Always wear a wide-brimmed hat, long-sleeved shirt, sunglasses and at least an SPF 15+ sunscreen when outdoors and drink plenty of water (at least two liters each day) to prevent dehydration. Do not stress yourself out in the heat. - Insects
The Territory abounds in mosquitoes and other biting insects, so always carry reliable insect repellent and mosquito coils wherever you go. Mosquito repellent creams can be applied for added protection. For those staying in camps during the competition, always keep your tent zipped and tap your shoes out in the morning. - Swim only where it is recommended
Always follow the warning signs near a water hole as Salt and freshwater crocodiles are found in most Top End billabongs and rivers, and are occasionally seen on remote beaches as well. Some times swimming at Northern Territory beaches is not recommended due to Box Jellyfish. Generally as well, however, a sign will always be posted in such places. Always enquire before getting into water. There are many safe places to swim, including local nature reserves, public swimming pools and in some national parks.
