YOUR CHANCE TO SWIM WITH THE SALTIES

-

A LEADING eco-tourism experience has been revamping its park with new improvemen­ts, including a CrocArena attraction and swim with the salties experience.

Wildlife Habitat Port Douglas now has a highly-anticipate­d Queensland first allowing visitors, if they dare, the chance to be submerged right into the crocodile’s kill zone.

The heart-stopping attraction, to open on Tuesday, will see visitors only have a clear screen separating them from the modernday dinosaurs with killer instincts.

CrocArena is also purpose-built for crocodile shows, including a grandstand with seating for 300 people, as well as an underwater viewing area where visitors can watch feeding time.

A year ago, a new aviary experience opened taking visitors on a multi-level adventure through lush flora.

Tourism and Events Queensland and News Corp’s Queensland mastheads are celebratin­g local holiday experience­s like Wildlife Habitat Port Douglas throughout the 20 Days of Holidays Like This campaign.

A new hot offer – 100 Wildlife Habitat Port Douglas CrocArena swim with the salties tickets for $1 each – can be purchased from 9am on Tuesday until sold out, by logging on to queensland.com/holidaysli­kethis.
