RAC Cable Beach Holiday Park

Located just 15 minutes from Broome, Malcolm Douglas Crocodile Park is home to some of the largest crocodiles in Australia, along with a variety of other native wildlife.

The adventure begins the moment you step through the towering crocodile jaws that form the entrance to the park. After purchasing your ticket, grab a seat and get ready for the daily crocodile feeding show. This thrilling spectacle not only showcases the incredible power of these ancient predators but also provides fascinating insights into their behaviour. There’s even a chance to hold a baby crocodile after the show.

As you explore the park, you’ll encounter emus, dingoes, cassowaries, and more. Comfortable shoes and a hat are recommended, as much of your visit involves walking through the park. Follow the guide around the park for an in-depth experience, or wander at your own pace, stopping to read the informative signs at each enclosure.

The park is open year-round (except Christmas Day) from 2 pm to 5 pm, with the crocodile feeding show starting at 3 pm daily. Before you leave, browse the gift shop for unique crocodile-themed souvenirs or treat yourself to an ice cream or cool drink to beat the heat.

For an extra treat, stop by The Mango Place, located just a minute up the road. Enjoy fresh pizzas for lunch or cool off with a mango ice cream in the lush outdoor garden setting.
