Did the 1.5 Southern Rockhole tour (28 Mar 2021 - eet season) - Nice little croc- free swim hole with a stunning waterfall. Beautiful and breathtaking. It is a 10 minute walk through rocks though, but very doable.

An easy hike in, beautiful area to cool off with a dip, fantastic view of the Gorge from the lookout, plenty of shade once at the Rockhole. Can't comment on the Ferry service as I always hike in and out.

What a beautiful place this Southern Rockhole is, with its waterfall tumbling down to a pool at the base.What was amazing the water was warm.

Nitmiluk is an amazing place, the southern rock pools are only available during the wet season, December to March approximately. Highly recommended doing the hike from the visitors centre (about 2 hours) and getting the boat back, which you need to book.

A great wet season destination, and conveniently connected by Nitmiluk ferry from the Visitor Centre, or an hour hike over moderate terrain. It can get crowded on the weekends, but if you take the 11am ferry in and wait until after the return trip at 12:30pm, you may have the entire swimming hole to yourself (and then just hike back). Also be aware that parts of the river entrance require decent rock scrambling skills and the rocks near the swimming hole can also be slippery and tricky. Take great care, bring a picnic, and enjoy the hike (and wonderful waterfalls).

You appreciate this swimming hole a lot more after doing the walk/hike to get there. You can ferry either way though.

Amazing swimming spot - must visit! It took us about an hour to walk to the rockhole. It has some steep steps to climb down and you need to walk over uneven surfaces. We caught the boat back from the rockhole which was about a 5/10 minute ride and cost around $14 each from memory.

It has been a nice walk from the main entrance to the waterfall. Not too steep and not too boring. I could enjoy a few hours of beautiful scenery with my friends.The outlook is very close to the actual waterfall.

Absolutely lovely, perfect for a dip after a long bushwalk in the heat. In wet season there's a small waterfall running into it too. Don't forget to bring insect repellent and a netted hat or at the very least something to swat the flies with or they'll drive you mad on the walk there.

The Southern Rock Hole was probably my favourite waterfall out of Litchfield, Edith Falls and Katherine Gorge.You can catch a ferry there and back for $15 one way. Or you can walk which is a couple of hours. Or you can walk one way and ferry back.It has heaps of shade and places to sit down and relax. It doesnt really get that hot, even in the hottest part of the day!The water is clear and is so refreshing to swim in.I went in the wet season and it wasnt busy at all. I imagine that it would be extremely busy in the dry. BUT! definitely worth seeing!!I will be visiting again for sure.
