Join us as we experience the picturesque waters of Kakadu National Park as we cruise on the look out for wildlife and an amazing array of birdlife that make this area their home. Whistling ducks and magpie geese are the most abundant, and eagles can be seen hovering searching for prey. At times you will see distinctive jabirus and may even get to see brolgas dancing. We will also keep our eyes out for the infamous crocodiles that inhabit the area.
