One of the must sees in North Qld! Great for the whole family!
We visited Hartley’s with our friends from the UK. We all had the best day! You can see their genuine love and respect for the crocodiles and all the other animals there. The knowledge of the staff was huge. The absolute highlight was the Croc attack show but the cruise with the crocs was awesome too!

Super Day! Loved it! A must do for any trip to Cairns or Port Douglas
Such a brilliant experience. Feels so authentic with their knowledge of the animals especially the crocs. The presenters doing the croc attack show and the boat ride were amazing. Will definitely visit again any time we are in Cairns. Our UK friends thoroughly enjoyed it too.

A large amount of crocodiles as many show to discover.
A large amount of crocodiles in the park and many show to discover. We had a great and busy day there to see many reptiles. Weather is so nice in July and we can see crocodiles eating and moving around. Kids enjoyed a lot in this wonderful park. We will come back next time if we visit Cairns.
