One BIG Croc, Probably about!

I was impressed by this smallish attraction that packed a big punch. The Croc exhibit was amazing and probably my favorite part. The facilities are well maintained and the whole experience is laid out in a very thoughtful manner.

Be sure and check the schedule for the daily shows, feeding times, and "encounters". Go in the afternoon, mornings are school field trips and busloads of tourists.

If you are staying at a nicer hotel with a concierge they can always get you discounted tickets and advise you on the best times to visit attractions often with good advise on nearby places to eat or see - Use the concierge ( don't forget to tip ) and it will pay off and your experiences will be better!
