Wonderful experience. Check the time of low tide before visit. During low tide there are high chances of locating crocodile. Great food is available just outside the national park museum.

Must visit during winters. Crocodiles, migratory birds, Kingfisher and a lot of biodiversity.

Wonderful place to spend your day with wild animals and mangrove forest
