BE CROCWISE - When Fishing and Boating in the Top End - AFANT
BE CROCWISE on the Water
The opportunity to hook a Barramundi, navigate dramatic tidal rivers and view a diverse range of tropical wildlife makes it easy to see why recreational fishing and boating in the Top End is so popular.
When it comes to crocodiles, the Northern Territory Government, the Amateur Fishermen’s Association of the NT and Parks Australia (Kakadu) takes your safety seriously. We share our waters with crocodiles and ultimately how you behave around crocodile habitats is your responsibility.
• Don’t become complacent - crocodile and human interactions can be risky when fishing and boating.
• BE CROCWISE - crocodiles can be found in any Top End waters (fresh or salt).
• Only swim in areas signposted as managed for swimming.
