Boat cruises on the Adelaide River 65km from Darwin where saltwater crocodiles are hand-fed with meat on poles, leaping from the water at close range. Cruises run multiple times daily. Dozens of individual crocodiles are known by name by the operators. One of Darwin's most iconic visitor experiences. The Adelaide River jumping crocodile cruise is the most visceral wildlife experience near Darwin — watching a 4m+ crocodile launch itself 1.5m out of the water is unforgettable.
