It's World Environment Day 🌏
As a dual listed UNESCO World Heritage site, Kakadu National Park is pretty special! Within the vast landscapes of Kakadu, there are six main landforms. Each landform and the habitat it contains has a range of plants and animals.
🍃 Savanna woodlands make up 80 per cent of Kakadu, with mostly eucalypts and tall grasses.
🌱 Monsoon vine forests occur in small, isolated patches such as the Manngarre walk or Gubara. Fruit-eating birds and flying foxes connect the plants by dispersing pollen and seeds.
🌄 The southern hills and broken ridge ranges are the result of millions of years of erosion, creating a diversity of habitats that do not occur anywhere else.
👀 The dominant sandstone escarpment of the stone country contain rock shelters and outliers around Ubirr and Nourlangie.
💦 The tidal flats, mangroves and coastline include 500 square kilometres of coastal and estuarine areas lined with mangroves and are recognised internationally significant for migatory birds.
🐊 The floodplains, rivers and billabongs undergo dramatic seasonal changes where, after summer rains, a sea of shallow freshwater spreads out for hundreds of square kilometres. As it dries, waterbirds and crocodiles seek refuge in remaining wet areas at Yellow Water and Mamukala
There's no place like Kakadu 💫
Our most popular activity at Kakadu is to jump onboard Yellow Water Cruises for a gentle glide through the Yellow Water Billabong. ⠀
⠀
Sunrise to sunset, the cruise winds its way through distinct ecosystems of Yellow Water Billabong and tributaries of the South Alligator River. ⠀
⠀
Home to numerous species of native creatures that thrive in this environment you're guaranteed to see crocs, brumbies, barra, birds... so many birds! In fact, Kakadu is home to about 1/3 of all Australian species. From the majestic black-necked stork to the tiny and sometimes elusive azure kingfisher, you'll be mesmerised by this incredible experience.⠀

☀️ Do not miss Ubirr. It’s one of Kakadu’s most famous spots.
The walk passes several breathtaking Aboriginal art sites and leads up to a stunning lookout over the Nadab floodplain. Gaze out over the floodplains, woodlands and dark ribbons of rainforest, and let the spirit and serenity of Kakadu envelop you.
😎 As the sun sets, the birds begin their evening song, the Wilkins rock wallaby darts about in the shadows of the escarpment getting ready for the night and the blue-winged kookaburras call out to tell everyone they are home for the evening. Locals refer to this as ‘the call of Kakadu’.
