Hi,
Well I KNOW where they took the picture of Ocean girl island.
They actually never filmed on that island. But of course it is fun to go there and see the shape of the island.
The island is not too far North of Cairns, so indeed about the height of Port Douglas.
I know cause when I took of from Cairns for a flight back to Brisbane, we took of North and then did a 180 turn.
Right as we were turned I saw the island from the air.
Other places?
Well apparently the swimming scenes were filmed in a pool in Melbourne. Also J M Shiff productions office is in Bay street, Melbourne. Just near an Irish pub.
That's all I know of.
Happy sailing!
Regards
Merijn
