The visitors too, will have a wonderful opportunity for some nice photo sessions with the reptiles.

The farm was established in 1950 and open to the public in 1997. The farm was founded for the conservation and breeding of crocodiles. Their habitat is kept as natural as possible. It houses over 1000 saltwater crocodiles of all sizes and ages. The star crocodile is the geriatric 130 years old crocodile that came from the first batch when the farm was established.

Apart from the old crocodiles, the visitors also get to experience touching and holding the crocodile’s babies with the caretaker’s supervision. 

The farm is now run by the third generation of the founder. It is well maintained and clean and equipped with covered walkways. It also has breeding ponds, cement ponds,dams, vegetation, a lake and sandy banks for breeding purposes.There is also a shop selling souvenirs.

Contrary to popular belief, crocodiles aren’t the ferocious monsters they have been made out to be. They spend most of their time basking on the banks of the farm’s lake or cooling off in the water.

It was an eye-opening experience and we spent about 2 hours touring the crocodile farm. Nice place to consider visiting if you are planning for a staycation in Desaru.

For the first time in my life, I am able to hear how a crocodile sounds like, how their eyes work and the fact about their eggs. All this info was rather overwhelming. Don’t get me wrong, am still scared shit of this vicious creature but my perception of it has changed slightly.

This is a worthwhile visiting place where you can see thousands of crocodiles in one time from the youngest to the oldest. As a travel blogger, at least I could tell others I have been to the largest crocodile farm in Peninsular Malaysia and seen the 155 years old crocodiles!LOL
