Go crocodile spotting to see these iconic beasts in the wild as you cruise along Proserpine River, and spend the day exploring the wetlands and wilderness. This full day adventure is the perfect way to discover the Aussie wildlife and landscapes around Airlie Beach. After being picked up from Airlie Beach, you'll be transported through endless fields of sugar cane and pastures to Glen Isla, near Proserpine. You'll arrive at the safari campsite, nestled within a unique tropical environment and home to a huge variety of birds, mammals, reptiles, and marine animals - including a population of over 100 estuarine crocodiles. Cruise for two hours through the mangroves of Proserpine River to spot the saltwater crocs in the wild. You'll also explore freshwater wetland habitat, melaleuca forest, and see Goorganga Plains on a tractor-drawn wagon train. Enjoy a delicious lunch plus some traditional billy tea and damper and you'll be dropped back to Airlie Beach at the end of you adventure.
