SWIM WITH THE SALTIES

- STEPHEN NADIN

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 have only a clear screen separating them from the modern-day dinosaurs.

General manager Clare Anderson said locals had responded well to the latest swim experience with many bookings.

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.
