Birding / Wildlife Tours

Take a journey into the heart of the Mary River wetlands on a specialised birding tour to suit your desires. There are over 250 species of birds in the catchment & a successful safari depends on getting the most out of our resources.

The Mary River region in Australia’s Top End is one of the most diverse areas in the country. The Mary River drains a catchment of over 8,000 square kilometres into 1,300 square kilometres of wetlands, swamps & billabongs to the sea. These wetlands empty into Chambers Bay through Tommycut & Sampan creeks – two tidally influenced channels extending some 50 kilometres inland. The Mary River itself, flows only in the wet season but exists as a series of billabongs in the dry season. The variety of habitats creates the regions richest environment, full of life, where birds breed & flourish.

Our experienced guides offer a host of birding activities including day & night walks, billabong cruises, estuary boating, airboat & all terrain vehicle expeditions. They are passionate about wildlife & are determined to ensure you leave feeling the same way…
