Go to Yellow Water Billalong, Ubirr and Nourlangie and definitely visit the waterfalls while you are here. If you don't have a 4WD, book an all day tour and they can take you. We are dinner at the Mercure restaurant. We had breakfast in Jabiru township.

This is a very small spot in the middle of the jungle. Little market provides some basis food and clothes but one should not rely on it for its supplies. Good place to stop while visiting Kakadu park. Well positioned to visit all sites. Walking distance to Bowali visitors center.

Jabiru is a small town in the heart of Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory. It’s a perfect base for exploring the park’s stunning landscapes, Aboriginal rock art, and diverse wildlife. Highlights include Nourlangie Rock, Yellow Water Billabong cruises, and scenic flights over Kakadu. The Bowali Visitor Centre offers great cultural and ecological insights. Accommodation ranges from eco-lodges to resorts, and local eateries serve simple but hearty meals. Best visited during the dry season (May–October) for easier access and cooler weather.

Great location for Kakadu. Close enough to most things. Ate at the Lodge and Mimi’s all our meals were excellent. Loved the self-guided sunset hike and ancient Aboriginal art at Ubirr. The river cruises were excellent.

The famous river cruise from Cooinda was nice but not outstanding as we'd been led to believe. The visitor centre on the edge of town is really good. Aboriginal cultural centre is wonderful & well worth a visit. Very few places to eat so don't expect a big choice.

The township needs investment as it has become run down HOWEVER the Murrawuddi Art Gallery is amazing - great coffee, lovely people and some really excpetional indigenous art. Totally recommend a visit - not only for the great coffee but also to purchase some great art work directly.
