Port Essington, NT

On the north-west tip of Arnhem Land is the Cobourg Peninsular, and to its north is Port Essington. It has a tropical and beautiful secluded natural harbour that is great for fishing, wildlife watching and relaxation. However, getting to this area is by boat or 4WD and access is by limited permit only.

The Cobourg Peninsular is a remote wilderness area of the Northern Territory and has 2 national parks: Cobourg Marine Park and Garig Gunak Barlu National Park.

The Parks conserves a variety of habitat from sand dunes, swamps, lagoons, coral reefs and grasslands to mangroves and rainforest.

Dugong, sea turtles, crocodiles and dolphins are just some of the marine life found in the area. These animals are protected.
