Crocosaurus Cove

Crocosaurus Cove sits on Mitchell Street in the heart of Darwin's CBD, on the city's lively dining-and-entertainment strip. A famous, much-loved attraction, it's a genuine Darwin highlight — home to saltwater crocodiles, reptiles and other wildlife, including the renowned 'Cage of Death' croc dive, the kind of thrilling, up-close experience that brings visitors face to face with the Top End's most iconic predator.

The appeal is that combination of incredible up-close encounters and genuine thrills: seeing the huge saltwater crocodiles, the reptile displays and — for the brave — the famous Cage of Death, where you can come nose-to-nose with a croc, makes for an unforgettable, distinctly Top End experience. It's a brilliant, memorable attraction for families, thrill-seekers and anyone curious about crocs, right in the centre of the city.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 2,800 reviews, it's clearly a hugely popular, well-loved attraction. Opening hours, admission, the croc dives and feeds, any experiences and ticketing vary, and a famous attraction gets busy, so it's worth checking current details and booking ahead where needed before you go — particularly for the Cage of Death or during peak times — while looking forward to the crocs at Crocosaurus Cove in Darwin.
