Oldsarge is exactly right. For the paying tourist-hunter, the .375 H&H should be considered the minimum. Any of the current .416s are better, and the .458 Win Mag is the great standby. Anything bigger is just gravy!

Ozzie water buff are big animals though, so premium controlled-expansion bullets are advised. This is probably more important than actual calibre.
