Darwin Crocodile Farm

Established in 1981, the Darwin Crocodile Farm farms crocodiles in a sustainable, commercially viable manner for crocodile products including meat, skins and tourism.

Commercial hunting of wild crocodiles was banned in Australia when saltwater crocodile had been reduced to dangerously low levels. From small beginnings, the Crocodile farm now has around 36 000 crocodiles while wild populations of crocs have been allowed to regenerate.

The farm has been developed with a series of billabongs planted with native trees which has also attracted many native birds and water monitors, turtles and many other lizard species are regularly spotted in the gardens.

This has become a popular destination for people wanting to see both the Saltwater Crocodiles and the smaller freshwater Johnstone Crocodile in a natural setting. Only a half -hour drive from Darwin, the farm has a guided tour at 12pm and another tour at 2.00 pm which includes feeding crocodiles

Snowy - the worlds largest albino Crocodile is a special attraction for visitors

Open 9.00 am to 4.pm daily (except Christmas day). The entry fee (inclusive of GST) is $10 for adults, $8 for pensioners and $5.50 for children.
