About Me
- Name: CROCODYLUS VILLAGE RESORT
- Location: Cow Bay, Daintree Qld, Australia
Crocodylus Village is situated at Cow Bay, between the Daintree River and Cape Tibulation, in a tall stand of some of the remaining lowland rainforest on the Queensland coast. The property adjoins the Bailey's Creek section of Cape Tribulation National Park. The rainforest canopy remains undisturbed at Crocodylus, and the accommodation huts are built off the ground and spaced amongst the dense tropical forest. The night and day walks are both educational and interesting and the resident guide "Possum" will make the experience memorable.

Hmmm, a cup of tea might have made the $20 night walk worthwhile!
Not only slugs and snails, and puppy dogs tails. we were promised a huge range of exotic animals - mammals, marsupials, reptiles and birds - from the Arnhem Tomb Bat, to the Yellow-footed rock Wallaby, we were assured we would be in for a fauna feast that would leave even the likes of Sir David Attenborough in disbelief. A trail more natural than nature itself - a trip more beautiful than a flamingo flying in front of a beautiful sunset - an adventure more exciting than Christmas morning. Yet the trail was about as interesting as the name Derek, wildlife as diverse as you might expect at a landfill site. I have to give the man credit - the mouse hiding in the tree stump was cute, as was the small frog next to the man made swimming pool (no doubt the next group were told this was a natural lagoon) but to have to let his pet pig out (who incidentally has dug up every piece of turf in a 50 mile radius) after failing to show us the ringtailed possum he stole the name of, and leading us to a plastic insect when the ones he told lore of were just in his head the group was feeling a little cheesed off with the $20 per person fee. But at least the cheese would have delighted the mouse.
