"Cage Of Death" Crocodile Swim and Entry to Crocosaurus Cove

"Cage Of Death" Crocodile Swim and Entry to Crocosaurus Cove

Your experienced guides will first take you through a 30-minute safety briefing to ensure you are well prepared to enter the Cage of Death. Operated by an over-head monorail and designed for 1 or 2 people per cage, the Cage of Death (a clear cage) will suspend you above the crocs before being lowered into the pen for a closer encounter with these amazing reptiles. You will then come face to face with the world’s largest reptile underwater. Experience the thrill of sharing the very same environment of a five-meter-long (or longer) saltwater crocodile. Marvel at their size and their prehistoric features and prepare for your heart to start racing as you catch each others' eye. Every Cage of Death dive includes 15 minutes in the enclosure with one of these massive reptiles. Regular feeding by our crocodile handlers while you are in the cage encourages more movement from the crocodiles and ensures an up-close encounter that must be seen to be believed! Don’t miss the chance of getting 360-degree views of you and the crocs as the on-site photographers captures amazing images both inside and outside of the crocodile enclosures. Meet some of the famous crocodile inhabitants, such as Chopper, Axel and William and Kate and be wowed by this unique, once in a lifetime experience. Included is a general admission ticket to Crocosaurus Cove to complete your day!

Holy moley, what an experience! The cage of death drive was an absolute highlight for our trip. Safety briefing was great and made us feel confident. The stars of the show certainly showed up for work on our experience. Baru came straight over when we climbed into the chamber and put on the charm for photos before we were taken to swim with William and Kate. William certainly gave us plenty of action during our dive, he was fantastic. Bucket list item complete!

So, so good! Truly a once in a lifetime experience for me and despite being a little apprehensive right beforehand I had a great time. Big shout out to the two photographers who were super friendly and really went the extra mile to make sure everyone's visit was great.
