locationThe Cobourg Peninsula

Secluded in the most remote northern 'Top End', with the protected area of Aboriginal Arnhem Land and preserved as a National park, Marine Park and Wildlife Sanctuary, the Cobourg Peninsula is not one place, but many places.

The Parks conserve a mosaic of sandy beaches, dunes and associated grasslands, mangroves, rainforest patches, swamps, lagoons, coral reefs, sea grass meadows and rich marine life. The Cobourg Marine Park protects several rare species, including the Dugong, andbook now several marine turtles, including the extremely endangered loggerhead. The Cobourg is also home to the largest wild herd of Banteng, an endangered species in their native Indonesia.
