RUN-OFF BARRAMUNDI FISHING SAFARIS

From February to May each year, at the end of the Wet season, the "run-off" occurs in the Top End. The flood waters retreat and barra congregate at the mouths of the feeder creeks to get an easy meal. This is prime time for catching barramundi.

Spend your days enjoying top class fishing, the area is also a photographer's dream with numerous bird and wildlife species and of course the awesome saltwater crocodile, which inhabits Top End waters.
