Dinner under the Milky Way

Important COVID-19 update – Visitor restrictions apply

Travellers need to keep up-to-date with where they can travel and which areas have been declared COVID-19 hotspots, as the COVID-19 situation in Australia is continually evolving.

All visitors need to ensure that they are complying with the current travel restrictions in place by the Northern Territory Government.

Enjoy an evening of Kakadu-inspired food and a beverage package at a one-of-a-kind event at Cooinda Airstrip.

This unique experience presents stargazing from a Kakadu Bininj perspective. The skies are rich in Aboriginal folklore, and traditional owners will be in attendance to share their interpretations of the stars above.

Hear Kakadu stories passed down the generations and other stories from around Australia that interweave the rich tapestry of Aboriginal night-time mythology.

Meanwhile you’ll enjoy a delectable menu prepared by Cooinda Lodge’s head chef.
