🧭 Northern Territory Coast Cruising Guide

Your Essential Companion for Exploring Australia’s Wildest Shoreline
📘 130 Pages | Softcover | Mud Maps, Anchorage Descriptions & Local Wisdom

🚤 Discover Untouched Beauty — and Navigate It Safely

From the tidal flats of Darwin Harbour to the remote inlets of the Gulf of Carpentaria, the Northern Territory coastline is one of Australia’s least explored and most enigmatic maritime regions. For those willing to venture off the beaten track, it offers immense rewards: breathtaking solitude, ancient landscapes, vibrant Indigenous culture, and incredible wildlife encounters.

But to sail this coast successfully, you need more than a chart. You need local knowledge, accurate anchorage details, and practical guidance. This is where the Northern Territory Coast Cruising Guide comes into its own.

This expertly compiled 130-page guidebook is a concise but highly informative handbook designed for recreational cruisers, passagemakers, delivery skippers, and adventurous mariners tackling the tropical north.

Access to shore or nearby facilities (if any!)

✔️ Navigation Notes
Essential info on currents, shoals, river bars, and access channels — critical for safely navigating this vast and shifting coastline.

✔️ Remote Cruising Logistics
Tips for fuel planning, water availability, provisioning, communications, and emergency options in this isolated region.

✔️ Environmental Awareness
Respect for country is paramount — the guide includes cultural awareness notes and warnings for protected areas, sacred sites, and traditional lands.

✔️ Wildlife Watch
Crocodiles, sea snakes, jellyfish, and storm systems — practical notes on staying safe in this rugged part of the world.
