Common Complaints

Wet Season Swimming Closures: During the tropical summer (typically October to March), swimming at Wangi Falls is often prohibited due to strong and dangerous currents and the potential presence of saltwater crocodiles.
Crowds: The popularity of Wangi Falls means it can get very busy, especially during peak dry season hours, making it less serene for those seeking solitude. The campground can also be overcrowded.
Online Booking System: For those planning to camp at the Wangi Falls Campground, the mandatory online booking system has been noted as potentially user-unfriendly, especially on mobile devices.
