Situated on the magnificent coastal drive between the popular destinations of Palm Cove and Port Douglas, Hartley's Crocodile Adventures is one of the best places to see crocodiles and native wildlife in Tropical North Queensland.

Set in the foothills of the MacAlister Range, in a World Heritage listed area, Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures is home to a range of habitat types including melaleuca wetlands, riverine rainforest and eucalypt woodland.

Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures provides an innovative approach to viewing and interacting with wildlife, enabling visitors to become immersed in a natural environment with safety. 

A series of timber boardwalks provide elevated viewing of wildlife as visitors journey through a range of natural habitats. 

Hartley's is famous for its exciting and educational wildlife presentations including crocodile shows, wetland wildlife, snake show, cassowary feeding, koala feeding and more.

Some activities are presented more than once allowing for half-day visitors.

Experienced keepers encourage questions about the animals and their habitat and will answer anything you might want to know.
