ABOUT US


WHAT MAKES US AWESOME

HARTLEY’S CROCODILE ADVENTURES – CELEBRATING 20 CROCTASTIC YEARS!

Hartley’s is one of the oldest running tourist attractions in the Cairns
region.  The business began in 1934 as a tea house for weary motorists,
traversing the recently opened road between Cairns and Mossman.

> The story of Hartley’s begins early last century…

Legend has it, the original owner Pop Evans, entertained motorists by feeding
Charlie the resident crocodile while scones cooked in the wood stove, and become
the first person in Australia to perform crocodile shows for the public.  Ninety
years later, Hartley’s world famous Crocodile Attack Show is as popular as ever.

Hartley’s was also the first place in Australia to breed crocs in captivity. 
Work on crocodile conservation at Hartley’s Creek Zoo attracted worldwide
interest.

Documentaries produced at Hartley’s helped arouse public interest and sympathy
for crocodile conservation, leading to the protection of wild crocodiles in
1974.

By now, the Zoo had established a venerable pedigree as one of north
Queensland’s leading attractions.  Renovated in 1987 by the Freeman family, the
zoo remained at its original site until 2002 when the brand new Hartley’s
Crocodile Adventures opened 500m south of Hartley’s Creek, delivering authentic
crocodile experiences in a new sustainable eco-attraction.

Over the last 22 years, Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures has continued to grow
offering visitors a suite of innovative, up close wildlife experiences, along
with the regular introduction of new wildlife displays.

> Since 2002, Hartley’s has been the recipient of many awards and accolades for
> outstanding tourism achievements and ground breaking architecture.
