A good place to learn about crocodile habitats and life cycles. You get to see everything from small baby crocs to massive ones, plus the feeding shows and other reptile cages. If it's your thing, you can even do the dive experience inside a glass cage with them. Some of the enclosures felt a bit small for the animals, but overall it was a worthwhile visit.

I had such a great time at Crocosaurus Cove! I went on a weekday and getting in was quick. The exhibits were interesting, and seeing the crocodiles so close was really cool. It's a truly memorable place and I definitely recommend it.

What a fantastic facility for conservation and education on such a magnificent creature. I did the cage of death and it was the best experience ever. Worthwhile spending the money and doing it. I was lowered in with William and to be literally inches away and having direct eye contact was amazing. A must do for every tourist.
