This cruise requires your own transport. Only 90 minutes drive, on your way to Kakadu, is a wetland experience not to be missed.
Corroboree Billabong is part of the beautiful Mary River Wetlands and apart from teeming with birdlife, it boasts the largest concentration of saltwater crocodiles in the world. View these prehistoric creatures in their natural environment cruising past our vessel or basking on the banks.
The sunset cruise allows you to view the wildlife during their active periods. Birds are trying to catch their final meals for the evening and crocodiles are on the move ready for a night of hunting. Add to this a spectacular sunset over the floodplains as we gently cruise around the Billabong and it`s easy to understand why this is one of our most popular cruises. Guests are provided with amazing photograph opportunities throughout the entire cruise as the sun sinks below the horizon. We are the only company in this region offering sunset cruises to their customers.

Could not have been happier with this cruise. We were spoiled with only having two other people on the cruise, I think being the wet season had put a few people off. Connie was our very experienced tour guide and captain, she sure knew exactly where to look to see all the wonders the billabong had to offer, and boy does she have good eyes! She was amazing at cruising up to a good spot and just letting the boat settle so as not to disturb the wildlife in any way, allowing us to see the wonders of the billabong at it truest. Highly recommend doing this..you even get to see plenty of wildlife on your journey to and from the jetty!

This tour was just simply the best. Small group of people, probably less than 20, but could be more I guess during high season. Our guide, Allen, was excellent. Nothing was rushed. We saw so much and the thing he did was to go from side to side showing us crocs, birds, bird nests, oh and so much more. I thought we wouldn't see so much of the birdlife because of the season, but I was pleasantly surprised. Even the flora was amazing. I'd love to see this area in full flood, I think it would be even more spectacular, but then again, I wouldn't think the tours would be running as it would be slightly! dangerous.
