25.01.2022 The video speaks for its self. Come and see the best wildlife cruise close to Darwin.

24.01.2022 We know that having to maintain social distancing is difficult during our COVID19 shut down. We are still receiving enquires via email. Even the guys from other jumping crocs, are calling past daily to see if we are open. We are working on ways to improve our business during this time, and know that when travel restrictions are lifted, we will once again open and give you Darwin’s most Spectacular jumping crocodile cruise.

23.01.2022 Pudukul Cultural tours are not only another local tour company we are proud to be associated with, but are also the traditional custodians of the land that Spectacular Jumping Crocodile Cruises operates from. For a different perspective on the land and river, incorporating one of our informative cruises, consider Pudukul for an outing when travel restrictions are lifted.

17.01.2022 The Adelaide River is under threat from both climate change and proposed irrigation plans. The past two wet seasons have produced very low rainfall and will have an impact of the surrounding areas. The Adelaide River and adjoins Fogg bay wetlands have been declared a bird habitat of world significance, with almost 1% of the worlds total wader bird population found in the area. The river is as pristine now, as when the area was first explored by row boat in the early 1800’s.

16.01.2022 So what do you do when social distancing and being a good community citizen, means your closed to the public? You do maintenance. This morning we pulled our boats out of the water for some special care and attention. Watch this space to see the transformation of our work horse Wildcat, into the show pony of the river.

16.01.2022 The Northern Territory can be a beautiful yet hostile environment. A piece of raw paradise that supports one of the healthiest and largest Saltwater Crocodile p...opulations in the world. Capturing this little hatchling sunbathing on the bank seriously made my day but taking photos is not our only mission as Damo and I explore the Territory in another action packed episode of #LegendsOfTheWild Watch On Discovery and Discovery Go AUS/NZ Premieres 19th May at 8.30pm Cheers to Spectacular Jumping Crocodile Cruise situated on the Adelaide River for the personal tour giving me the opportunity to be capturing the 1st two shots in this photo series.

08.01.2022 M A R I L Y N Introducing Marilyn, the blonde bombshell of the Adelaide River! Marilyn is an adult female saltwater crocodile, approximately 2.8m in length, putting her right at the average size for a lady. ... She currently lives in the territory of her mate Stumpy. Marilyn can be tricky to distinguish from her neighbour Ziggy at first glance since they're both lucky enough to not be missing any extremities - however Marilyn is noticeably lighter in colour than most of the other females we work with (except for Pearl of course!), which is how she got her name, after the famous Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe Who should be our next featured croc, leave your suggestions in the comments and let us know who your favourite was - crocodiles love to have their egos stroked! #seeaustralia #tourismtopend #NT #darwin #spectacularjumpingcrocodilecruise #neverhaveiever
