Cage of Death crocodile experience, new face to face encounter

Since opening its doors in July 2008, Crocosaurus Cove Darwin has set a new standard of interaction when it comes to the Top End’s most iconic reptiles.
Its inner city location, housing almost 200 crocodiles, including some of the largest Saltwater crocodiles on the planet and its aquarium like underwater viewing of these prehistoric creatures, has proven extremely popular with both locals and tourists alike.
However, it is the Cage of Death, Australia’s only crocodile dive, that has firmly put Crocosaurus Cove on the map.
Thousands of people have been thrilled & terrified by sharing the very same enclosure of 5m + crocodile, while the unique activity has featured in media outlets around the world.
Four years on, the Cage of Death is still wowing people daily, however now with a new and more interactive experience.
A brand new cylindrical design with improved viewing capabilities was introduced in May 2012 and now Crocosaurus Cove is pleased to announce the Cage Croc Feed as part of each Cage of Death dive.
Every dive will now include 15 minutes in the enclosure with one of these massive reptiles, while they are feed from our experience reptile handlers from outside the enclosure.
This experience encourages more movement from the crocodiles and ensures an up close and personal, face to face encounter that must be seen to be believed!
