Gove Peninsula, Northern Territory

Reference :

Nhulunbuy
Nhulunbuy on the Gove Peninsula is the main point of access for people flying into east Arnhem Land. The town is situated 650 kilometres east of Darwin where the Gulf of Carpentaria meets the Arafura Sea on the Gove Peninsula. The 4,000 strong population enjoy a unique, isolated lifestyle next to some of the most wild and beautiful coastline in the country. The Gove Peninsula encompasses nearly 100,000 square kilometres of land owned entirely by the Yolngu people (Yolngu is the name that the local Aboriginal people use to refer to themselves, it is not a name of a particular language group).
