It was quite hot on the day in Nov 2020 but it was worth it. The wallabies young ones hanging around on the grounds were very friendly and sweet. Alex and the Aboriginal guide, Manuel, are a worthy duo. Highly recommended.

Very fresh greens, fruits & veg. All grown locally, so there is a very tropical/asian feel to the produce. Prices vary from stall to stall as does variety. So walk around, see what's on offer & then decide which stall to buy which product from.

Aboriginal Bush Traders has wonderful and authentic cuisine showcasing Aboriginal food with a twist. I ate an excellent ham and cheese Panini. I drank a refreshing Rosella ice tea, which tastes similar to Hibiscus. The food was cooked to order and Raeleen greets customers with her contagious smile. The gift shop has fantastic indigenous items too. I purchased a rub that cures coughs for my father. The best part is that they're centrally located because it is a three-minute walk from my hotel. Lastly, it is directly across ta park with a sea view.
