The shady camping area has two excellent bathroom amenity blocks with hot showers and toilets, laundry facilities, a camp kitchen with a fridge, toaster, kettle, microwave and BBQ cook-tops. While our powered sites include potable water, there are also filtered water stations available, with access to all of Cooinda's resort-style facilities including Children's playground, jumping pillow, restaurants, fuel station and lagoon swimming pool. All Kakadu Tourism tours also depart from Cooinda, making Yellow Water Campground the perfect base for all your adventures.
Mimi's restaurant at Cooinda Lodge offers comfortable indoor dining with air conditioning all year round. During the cooler months, from March to September, we additionally open the alfresco Barra Bar, adorned with fairy lights for a balmy outdoor dining experience. Alongside this, our Too Deadly Takeaway fish 'n' chip van, The Smoking Croc BBQ house, and the early bird coffee cart are also available, each featuring traditional bush-tucker flavours combined with modern culinary techniques.
Adjacent to Cooinda Lodge, the campground is located in the Southern end of Kakadu, and is a perfect base for most tours. All Kakadu Tourism tours are based out of Cooinda, including Yellow Water Cruises, Spirit of Kakadu 4WD Adventures and Yellow Water Fishing, and it is a short walking distance to Warradjan Cultural Centre. The Southern end of the park features most swimming holes and waterfalls including Maguk, Jim Jim Falls, Twin Falls, Ikoymarrawa, Boulder Creek, Motor Car Falls and Kubara Pools.
Kakadu isn’t just a place — it’s a living story.
Home to over 65,000 years of continuous culture, this land holds rock art older than the pyramids, and knowledge that’s been passed down across generations.
It’s not like anywhere else on earth because it’s not trying to be.
Thank you @toyota_aus [IG] for showcasing the beauty of Kakadu National Park.

Guide to Kakadu: Yellow Water Billabong
If there’s one place that sums up the wild beauty of Kakadu, it’s this. Sunrise cruises, saltwater crocs, birds everywhere, and water that stretches out like glass. @houseofdarwin hit the floodplains to capture the wild side of Kakadu.

A saltwater crocodile in its natural habitat—Kakadu’s waterways. These powerful predators have ruled these wetlands for millions of years. Saltwater crocodiles can grow over 6 meters long and have the strongest bite of any animal. Kakadu is one of the best places to see them safely in the wild. 🐊

There’s no filter needed when nature paints the scene herself. Kakadu from above is a riot of colour—emerald wetlands, rust-red cliffs, and the deep blue threads of rivers weaving through it all
Come see these stunning views yourself! https://kakadutourism.com/see-and-do/tours
Be quick! The best time to see the Jim Jim and Twin Falls is generally between November to May.
