Yellow Water Cruises

Yellow Water Billabong, Kakadu's most famous wetland, is located at the end of Jim Jim Creek, a tributary of the South Alligator River. The river system, which is the largest in Kakadu, contains extensive wetlands that include river channels, floodplains and backwater swamps.

Wild Life

About one third of Australia's bird species are represented in Kakadu National Park.

At least 60 species are found in the wetlands. Whistling Ducks and Magpie Geese are the most abundant. Our guides run a competition between themselves on who can find "the big five" on one cruise - all five species of kingfisher that can be found in Kakadu. One species is only 2 cm tall.

Yellow Water Fishing

Provides an opportunity to catch the famous barramundi on Kakadu's most famous billabong. Fishing experiences of 3 hours are perfect for novices and families to experience the thrill of fishing these waters with the guidance of an experienced fishing guide.

Our guides provide all of the fishing gear and will coach how to cast, retrieve and lure the most attractive to the Yellow Water barramundi.

Fishing is with lures only so there is no need for live or fresh bait. The boat has a casting deck, seating, partial shade, iced water, refresher towels and keen guides full of fishing stories. A great experience on one of the most beautiful waterways in the world. If you end up catching a fair sized fish, you've the option to have our chefs cook it up for you, or leave it.
