Nhulunbuy/Gove

Join the Yolngu clans of northeast #ArnhemLand for a 4-day celebration of art (miny'tji), dance (bunggul), ceremony and song (manikay) at @GarmaFestival from 29 July - 1 August. Like nothing you’ve ever experienced before, Garma is a place where the freshwater and saltwater meet, and an opportunity for cross-cultural exchange. Lit up under the stars, the stunning Gapan art gallery is a sight to behold, while the daily bunggul (ceremonial dancing) is not to be missed. The festival is held at Gulkula, a Gumatj ceremonial site about 40km from #Nhulunbuy on the Gove peninsula. Tickets are on sale now!

🇦🇺 There are 8222 islands linked to Australia, plenty for all. But there may be a few you may have overlooked in your travels, including NT's Bremer Island. 🏝 As Arnhem Land shrugs off its European placenames, Bremer, off the coast of East Arnhem Land, will finds its voice as Dhambaliya. A 30-minute boat ride through the clear waters of the Arafura Sea, or a 15-minute flight from Gove airport at Nhulunbuy, touchdown is on Yolgnu land. 🐢 Return visitors here include nesting turtles who visit all year found, and the fishing is said to be as good as you'd expect in the Top End. Named for the northerly point on which the resort is located, eco-retreat Banu Banu has just six ocean-facing bungalows and beachfront tents. Take its sea kayaks out for a paddle or go snorkelling in the western bay, and owner Helen Martin recommends a blue-water fishing charter. 👀 To read more on Australia's lesser known islands by global_salsa , hit the link in our bio. 🤞 Don't forget to tag your travel images travellerau , #travellerau or #travelleraudream to give us permission to feature. 📸 _markfitz #seeaustralia #tourismtopend #ntaustralia #northernterritory #northernterritoryaustralia #nt #ntgallery #outback #outbacknt #australia #holidayathome #australiagram #australia_shotz #australia_oz #travelphotography #travel #traveller #bremerisland #bremerislandnt #islandlife #islandvibes #sunset #sunsetsofinstagram #sunsetlover #sunsetphotography #seeaustralia

The beautiful, rugged landscape and white sandy beaches are an escape from the hustle and bustle of city living and the region attracts adventurers from far and wide in search of a chance to connect with this beautiful country and its rich, traditional culture. Locals spend their time enjoying nature-based activities including fishing, bush walking, camping, traditional arts, hunting and bush-tucker safaris.
