Did you know Kakadu National Park has over 10,000 crocodiles living in its wetlands, billabongs and rivers? 🐊 Seeing a croc in the wild is one of the Top End’s most unforgettable experiences!

👉 There are two types of crocodiles in Kakadu:
#1 - Saltwater crocodiles ("salties") – powerful apex predators, growing over 5 metres long and found in most waterways.
#2 - Freshwater crocodiles – smaller and more timid than salties. They rarely pose a threat to humans, but it’s always important to give them space and respect.

⚠️ Croc safety tip: Always heed warning signs, swim only in designated safe areas, and never assume a waterhole or river is croc-free.

Maguk Falls, also known as Barramundi Gorge, is a hidden gem in Kakadu National Park. A short but rewarding hike leads to a picturesque waterfall cascading into a crystal-clear plunge pool, perfect for a refreshing swim. 💦 Surrounded by rugged sandstone cliffs and lush forest, Maguk offers a more secluded and tranquil experience compared to other falls in Kakadu!

Jim Jim Falls is one of Kakadu National Park’s most spectacular natural wonders!
Towering cliffs frame this dramatic waterfall, which plunges into a stunning pool at the base of the escarpment. Accessible via a 4WD track and walking trail, Jim Jim Falls is best visited in the dry season when the water cascades in all its glory. Surrounded by ancient sandstone cliffs and lush forest, it’s a must-see destination for adventure seekers and nature lovers exploring the Top End. 💦🥾
