If you’re visiting Darwin and want to take the opportunity to get up close and personal with some mighty native crocodiles, then Crocosaurus Cove is the place to go.
Located at the heart of the city, it’s home to the world’s largest display of Australian reptiles and the only place in the country where you can dive with crocodiles (if you dare).
There are other reptiles too, including turtles, snakes and cousins of the lizard. Experience some really unique activities whether you’re visiting alone, in a group or with family.
Crocosaurus activities include diving with crocodiles, feeding them and holding them – thanks to the experts at hand, you can get closer than you’d ever dare to in the wild! Crocosaurus Cove is open every day from 9am to 6pm and only closes on Christmas Day.
