  Saltwater crocodiles move all over the park with the water, and rangers survey and clear the few plunge pools that open each dry. Everywhere else is closed to swimming, permanently and for good reason. Kilde ↗

  From May the floodplains drop, the unsealed roads dry out and the park opens up properly. Bininj count six seasons here, not two, and this covers three of them.

  Park pass, dry-season price

  15. maj – 31. okt.

  Everyone needs a pass and it costs more in the dry than in the wet (an adult pass is $40 in the dry, $25 in the wet). Buy it online before you drive in; the ranger stations are a long way apart and there is no boom gate to sell you one. Kilde ↗

  The build-up

  Locals call October to December the build-up: still, heavy air and thunderheads that stack up for weeks before they deliver. Tours wind down, tempers fray, and the lightning is the show.

  Cyclone season

  1. nov. – 30. apr.

  Systems crossing the Top End coast bring days of torrential rain and wind rather than a direct blow. The highways in from Darwin can be cut for days, and Jabiru is where you wait it out. Kilde ↗
