4. Spectacular Jumping Crocodile Cruise

Two hours away from Darwin, drive down to the Litchfield National Park. See huge crocodiles launching themselves vertically out to claim dangling meat. Watch these creatures up close in the wild as cruises run several times a day.

5. Take A Dip In Natural Pools 

One of the things to do when in Australia is to swim in the natural water pools. This one doesn’t have crocodiles, jump in! Water from springs and rains have created a number of impressive waterfalls. Swim in Florence falls or Buley Rockhole as the plunge pool is perfect for swimming.
