Yellow Water Wetlands

(Check wet season access)
Yellow Water is part of the South Alligator River floodplain. A boardwalk provides good views of Yellow Water's wildlife. When the waters recede, a 1.8 km return walk takes you across the floodplains to a viewing platform on Home Billabong. The Yellow Water boat cruise operates throughout the year and provides a marvellous opportunity to see the varied birdlife of Kakadu's World Heritage wetlands.
