About this place
Kings Cascades is a popular stopover on multi-day cruises that operate between Broome, Wyndham, Darwin and Cairns.
You can take a walk around the Kings Cascades and enjoy the amazing scenery but do not swim here as large saltwater crocodiles inhabit the area (this was the site of a fatal attack in 1987). Nevertheless, watching crocodiles safely from a boat is one of the thrills of visiting Prince Regent National Park. Please bring your own drinking water as there is none available.
Safety information
Plan when to visit. Consider travelling with a personal location beacon (PLB). In the event you need to be rescued it could save your life!
Crocs are common, crocs move around and crocs are deadly so Be Crocwise. Download the Crocodile safety and myth busting fact sheet.
Pay attention to all warning signs, however just because a sign isn’t there doesn’t mean crocodiles aren’t present. If you are unsure don't swim, canoe or use small boats in estuaries, tidal rivers or pools and contact the nearest Parks and Wildlife office.
