A crocodile's head is more narrow and the snout comes to more of a point as compared to an alligator. An alligator's snout is blunt - more of a U-shape. I try to remember the difference by thinking that if the nose is pointed like a capital "A", then it is not an Alligator. It's a bit tough to remember since it is a negative. Another memory jog - though negative - would be if the snout is rounded (a capital "C" is rounded) it is not a Crocodile.
The crocodile has a more tapered snout than the broader snout of the alligator.

Oh, dude, the crocodile totally wins the snout game. It's like the supermodel of the reptile world with its long, slender snout, while the alligator is more like the cute girl next door with its shorter, rounder snout. So, if you're into that long-snouted, mysterious vibe, go for the crocodile.
No it is NOT an alligator. They are very different.
