Frequently Asked Questions about Corroboree Billabong | 2 Hour Sunrise Wetland Cruise

What should I bring?

Bring a hat, binoculars (if you have some), camera, mosquito repellent, sunscreen, and your tour ticket

Yes, there is cold water available for passengers during the cruises.

Yes, there is a public toilet available in the carpark area at Corroboree Billabong. There are no toilet facilities on the boat, so please allow time to use the public toilet before boarding the cruise. 

Yes, the boat has a full-length canopy so there is always some shade available. Depending on your cruise time and your seat on the boat though, there is a possibility that you may be in the sun at some stage. It's recommended to bring sunscreen.

Yes, but please consider other passengers as this is a nature-based cruise in peaceful surroundings. You know your infant best and whether or not they would be content for the duration of a cruise. We would generally suggest the shorter duration cruises to be the most suitable option.

It's rare that the cruise does not see any crocodiles at all. The time of year and the time of day that you take a cruise will determine if the crocs are swimming in the water or sunning themselves on the bank. In the cooler months, it's more likely the crocodiles will be underwater as the temperature is warmer than the surface. 

Yes, definitely. We generally see about 30 different species of birds on our cruises.

Generally speaking the early morning or late afternoon cruises are best for birdlife. In saying that, we see just as much on the 2.5-hour midday cruise because there is time to cover a greater section of the wetlands than in the shorter duration cruises

These wetlands are only accessible from April to November. They are beautiful throughout this complete period with an abundance of water lilies, fantastic wildlife, and plenty of birds.

We recommend people allow a minimum of 75 minutes to drive the 84 km from Darwin to Corroboree Park Tavern. This distance can be completed in 60 minutes on a good day at 120 km/hr but if you get caught behind a road train on the highway you will need extra time. There is still 20 km to drive from Corroboree Park Tavern to the cruise departure point at Corroboree Billabong. This includes 4 km of unsealed road. 

There is 4 km of unsealed road to reach the cruise. This road is a government-maintained gazetted road & is graded every 4-6 weeks so the condition is generally pretty good.

If you do not wish to drive on the unsealed road, we operate a shuttle from Corroboree Park Tavern that departs 30 minutes before the cruise times. The shuttle operates from April-October inclusive and costs $10 return per person. Bookings are essential.

Yes, it is possible to leave your caravan at Corroboree Park Tavern. They have plenty of room available and are happy to offer this facility. Please ask for more details when making your reservation.
