Situated amongst the natural beauty of Kakadu National Park, Cooinda is the perfect place to relax and explore the wildlife and natural sites of this world famous Park.
Surrounding Cooinda is Yellow Water, a large billabong which floods in the wet season and joins with both Jim Jim Creek and the South Alligator River.
Cooinda is the base for the world renowned Yellow Waters Cruises, where crocodiles, birds and occasionally wild horses are seen amongst paperbark forests, pandanus, freshwater mangroves and exotic tropical trees. It is also home to thousands of Australia's magnificent bird species.
For visitors looking for authentic Aboriginal artwork, Cooinda has an extensive selection of galleries and shops, offering everything from the smallest Aboriginal animal carvings to Aboriginal dot paintings large enough to cover an entire wall. Food and provisions are available at Gagudju Cooinda Lodge.
