Book flights to Baniyala

Baniyala is a small Aboriginal community in Australia's Northern Territory, located around 210 kilometres (130 miles) from Nhulunbuy. The community itself has a population of about 150 Yolngu people. The Yolngu people have lived in this area for thousands of years and their culture is very much alive today. In fact, the Baniyala community played a significant role in Australian history by being the first Aboriginal group to successfully win recognition of their sea rights. This means that they have legal rights to the ocean area around their land.

You can visit Baniyala and experience some Yolngu culture for yourself. There is a campground available with fresh water, showers, toilets and cooking facilities. There are also rooms you can book to stay in. If you are interested in visiting, be sure to get a permit from the Northern Land Council first.
