Highlights

  • Experience the thrill of close encounters with saltwater crocodiles through thick glass on the Adelaide River Queen II.
  • Savour informative commentary that enriches your understanding of crocodile behaviour and habitat during the cruise.
  • Feel the excitement as you observe these magnificent creatures in their natural environment without disrupting their lifestyle.
  • Enjoy family-friendly facilities, including car parking and public toilets, ensuring a comfortable outing for everyone.

What’s even more amazing is that this attraction is natural; it takes nothing from the crocodile’s habitat and changes nothing in the way it lives naturally in the wild.

A short interaction of just a few minutes a day ensures that the crocodiles lose none of their natural survival and hunting instincts. You can almost touch these animals through the thick glass windows of the Adelaide River Queen II or their beautiful skin on the open Pathfinder vessels, and together with an informative commentary this experience will leave you with a balanced and informed view of the Australian saltwater crocodile.
