Australia: Kakadu NP – Yellow Water Billabong
Yellow Water Billabong is the heart of the Kakadu National Park is one of the top attractions, it is a large landlocked floodplain that explodes in size during the wet season and is teaming with wildlife and birdlife. Known as Ngurrungurrudjba, it’s best explored by boat. Crocodiles of all sizes, including massive ones, are all along the shores and right next to the boat, almost within an arms reach: Wild buffaloes and horses can be see in the grasslands, and birds congregate in thousands. The early morning crusade is best for seeing the most wildlife before the pressing heat forces everyone into hiding. Spectacular morning sky landscapes are also to die for.
