Wurrwurrwuy (Garanhan) Macassan Beach Interpretive Walk

Wurrwurrwuy (Garanhan) Macassan Beach Interpretive Walk is a 35-minute drive from Nhulunbuy town centre. Along this enlightening walk, see the unique stone arrangements constructed over 100 years ago by the Yolngu elders, to educate future generations about the history of the Macassan traders who visited the region from Indonesia. This fascinating walk gives an insight into the trade between the Yolngu and the Macassans that existed for several centuries, until 1907 when trading was stopped by the Government.

Travellers must obtain a recreation permit from Dhimurru Land Management Aboriginal Corporation prior to visiting the area.
