Accommodation in East Arnhem Land
Accommodation is available for visitors in Nhulunbuy and includes Motel, Hotel/Lodge and budget accommodation. Currently there is an accommodation shortage in the region so ensure you make your bookings before you depart.
Camping or Caravanning?
The town has no established caravan park or
camping facilities, however Bush camping
without facilities are available in the recreation areas managed
by Dhimurru
Land Management Aboriginal Corporation and a permit must
be obtained.
Please note that the Central Arnhem Road is not recommended
for caravans. The Northern Land Council will not approve a
permit to tow a van into East Arnhem Land and Dhimurru Land
Management Aboriginal Corporation will not issue a Visitor
Recreation Permit to anyone with a caravan.
This is to minimize the environmental impact of long term
camping at recreational camping areas. Penalties apply for
moving throughout the region without a permit and visitors
are asked to respect the wishes of the Traditional Owners
in this regard.
