Mardukal Billabong
Important COVID-19 update – Visitor restrictions
COVID-19 safety measures remain in place at Kakadu National Park. The Northern Territory Government has implemented a number of health directions to keep the community safe.
It is important for travellers to keep up to date with the COVID-19 situation in Australia as it is continually evolving. Read more.
NT Health also encourages visitors to the NT to protect themselves against mosquitoes due to the presence of Japanese encephalitis.
This large, deep billabong is lined with paperbark trees – a fantastic spot to unplug, drift and take time out.
If you throw out a line here you’re likely to find both barra or saratoga biting, though the joy of fishing is you never know what will happen next!
The top campground is open all year round, but the lower campground gets flooded in the tropical summer (November to March).
