Could the million-dollar barra be waiting in Yellow Water Billabong? 🎣

Australia's richest fishing competition is back for its 12th season, with one tagged barra worth $1 million and 100 more worth $10,000 each. Five of the $10,000 barra caught in Kakadu over the past three seasons came from Yellow Water Billabong. To boost your chances, Yellow Water Fishing is running private fishing tours from Cooinda until the end of the year.

No time to blink. 👀🐊📸

In Kakadu, you never quite know what’s going to appear next. A bird taking flight. A crocodile slipping silently through the water. Wildlife appearing from the reeds. Moments so good you’ll want to capture it forever.

Kakadu - keep your eyes peeled. Camera ready. 📸

The Croc - never one to let a free lunch pass him by...

📸 You haven't really arrived until you've got THE shot! The Kakadu National Park sign is one of the must-have photos as you enter the park, and this family nailed it. 🙌

It's the perfect way to kick off your Kakadu adventure: 20,000 square kilometres of waterfalls, wetlands, wildlife and more than 65,000 years of living culture waiting just beyond the sign.

Tag us in your entrance photo. We'd love to see it! 👇

🚫 A quick reminder: drones aren't permitted in Kakadu National Park without a permit from Parks Australia, and permits aren't issued for recreational use. Be sure to pack your drone away as soon as you enter the park.
