Overview

1 hour Daintree River wildlife and crocodile cruise on the only solar electric boat on the Daintree river. The boat it is nice and quiet and there are no petrol fumes or exhaust , it is also good for getting close to the wildlife without disturbing it. We aim to treat this fragile ecosystem with respect and have minimal impact, our boat does not create a wake so we do not erode the mangroves. We are the only boat with "Croc Cam"; a digital video with a very good zoom for showing hard to see animals on a big screen. Wildlife includes Salt Water Crocodiles, snakes, frogs, and birds and also interpretation of the mangrove environment. The business is locally family owned and operated and has been going since 2002. We offer a unique eco experience with minimal impact; see, hear and smell nature at its best. We also offer longer two or three hour cruises by bookings only, maximum 10 people great for photography or those that want a longer more personalised tour.

We did a morning cruise at 9:30 am. As the tide is high at that time it is difficult to spot large crocs but our guide was very informative and a great spotter. He found several snakes, frogs, little crocs and in the end also two big ones. The boat is familiar and quiet, a good choice for seeing...

Had a great time exploring the river with Solar Whisper! Got to see an adult crocodile as well as some baby crocodiles! Also saw frogs and a snake. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and professional.
