"I find myself forever at awe with this national park. Also the perks of visiting Kakadu National Park in the wet season is it’s full and fresh waterfalls. Igoymarrwa rockholes are surrounded by rocky cliffs and escarpment. Perfect spot to have a dip in these freshwater plunge pools."

📍Igoymarrwa Falls

🪷 February 2nd marks World Wetlands Day

Did you know? The wetlands of Kakadu have developed over the last 6,000–7,000 years and are superimposed over an old marine environment.

The four habitats of the wetlands become one entity (spatially continuous) during the wet season, linked by floodwater and sharing the same species.

These habitats are known as ‘the wetlands.’ In the dry season the water dries up and the wetlands become fragmented and frequented by different species - for this reason they are treated as different wetland habitats.

The four habitats of the Kakadu wetlands are:
1. Rivers and billabongs (freshwater wetlands)
2. Floodplains of grasses and sedges (freshwater wetlands)
3. Paperbark swamps (freshwater wetlands)
4. Mangrove forest (inter-tidal wetlands)
