More Festive Fun to Be Had
One of the standout attractions running throughout the festive season is the Secret Santa Pop-Up, where Santa may appear at any time of day with surprise giveaways for lucky visitors. Adding to the festive feel at Crocworld is the ongoing face painting and jumping castle fun to keep the children entertained, while adults browse the Crocworld Curio Shop and enjoy the relaxed coastal setting.
Visitors can also explore a selection of locally made crafts and gifts available from vendors trading in the Crocworld parking area, arranged in collaboration with the South Coast Tourism & Investment Enterprise (SCTIE). These craft stalls provide a perfect opportunity to support local artisans while picking up unique holiday gifts.
Beyond the special events, Crocworld continues to offer daily crocodile feedings at 11am and 3pm, giving visitors the chance to learn more about these fascinating reptiles from the centre’s expert team.
The festive cheer continues into the New Year, with the first 100 visitors on New Year’s Day set to receive a free Slushie from the Fish Eagle Café. With ongoing activities and educational family fun, Crocworld remains a must-visit destination throughout the holiday season.
