Yesterday my family and I which are locals paid $80 to enter thr park. 2 adults 4 children. We were so disappointed with our visit. We thought it would be a nice treat as the kids had never been. But we all left disappointed. We are usually easily pleased but when paying that amount we expected much more. From the moment you enter with the service to the moment you leave I felt bad I actually contributed my money to this place. The turtle for one, that is in captive for no medical reasons and could happily be released but isn't for the gain of money apauls me. The croc pens are held together with the same wire I use for my chook pen and is very dark and absolutely stinks through out. Of course you get smells with animals but we have never come across a place like this. We walked up to the croc show and left after 2 minutes. The show was boring. With only a tiny corner to view. There must have only been 10 other customers at the time but we still couldn't see anything. What we did see was enough though as this place is so expensive to visit animals caged up in tiny enclosures and for no reason. I really thought this day and age these type of places were a thing of that past. I'd absolutely love a refund but know I won't get one. Considering we spent no more then 5 minutes in the place. Back in the day this might be acceptable but we need to do better then that. People that like this place obviously don't understand how animals should live and I recommend saving your money and doing a tour with Solar wisper to really learn about the crocodiles properly in their natural habitat or Hartleys creek.

Read moreA small family owned business that was amazing. We have been to bigger more globally known attractions and learned so much more in our visit here. The staff love their job and it shows. Our son had a million and one questions and the knowledgeable young man doing the feeding and education show was very interactive with him. This marine land is awesome. Nothing like what I expected. There are allot of crocs here. All with very interesting stories. I won't ruin the surprises. The art work is an extensive collection and beautiful and respectful representation of our neighbouring Islands. This attraction is very laid back and you can relax, unwind, learn heaps and enjoy marvelling at these huge creatures we share our home with. Definitely get the photo package! The gift shop does not disappoint. There is everything from small reasonable gifts for the kids to buy to a wide variety of precious stones, croc teeth and jewelry as well. This experience surpassed my expectations. A must see. Make sure you're there for feeding time. Did I mention the reef life you can see in tanks? Amazing. So mesmerizing. The water was choppy on the way over so this way we could see very clearly the life that grows and lives...
