Seven Spirit Bay Wilderness Lodge Situated in one of the world’s most magnificent and untouched tropical wildernesses - the Australian Northern Territory’s Garig Gunak Barlu National Park on the Cobourg Peninsula of Arnhem Land. 

Northern Australia’s first flora and fauna protection reserve, to stay on the Cobourg Peninsula is an exclusive privilege - entry is by permit only, and visitor numbers are extremely limited.

Seven distinct environments are protected here - from the ocean wilds to the shoreline, rivers, paperbark swamps, rainforest jungle, Arnhem Land bush and the age old rocks. 

Just a few metres from the shores of the Arafura Sea, Seven Spirit Bay nestles among the trees in virtually untouched forest, designed to be in complete harmony with its environment. 

Natural harmony, open to the sea breezes and the sights and sounds of the tropics - day and night - has been achieved through a design style that is tropical, relaxing and completely elegant. 

Guests stay in 23 freestanding ‘habitats’, while a central complex houses reception. lounge bar. restaurant, library and conference room, all overlooking the magnificent lagoon swimming pool and Coral Bay.

Environmentally conscious comfort, excellent service and wonderful cuisine in the most extraordinary setting - a rare kind of wilderness and an incomparable retreat from the ordinary world. 

The hub of Seven Spirit Bay is where guests go to dine and socialise, sharing the experiences of their day. Sipping a favourite drink at the lounge bar and witnessing a magnificent Top End sunset, anticipating a meal that features the finest local and national produce with an emphasis on seafood... It doesn’t get any better than this.

Naturally, special dietary requirements can be looked after as requested. Dining in tropical style in the cool of covered timber decking, guests enjoy unimpeded views of the Arafura Sea and the surrounding bushland. 

Seven Spirit Bay is located 185 kilometres north-east of Darwin. The lodge is situated on the northern coastline of the Cobourg Peninsula in an almost completely unpopulated tropical wilderness area of some 2,200 square kilometres. 

Despite its remote and secluded location. Seven Spirit Bay is only a 45 minute flight by light aircraft from Darwin to Midjari airstrip. located 15 kilometres from the Lodge. The scenic trip to the lodge by vechile introduces guests to the flora and fauna of the Cobourg wilderness. This journey is an integral part of the adventure experience, giving guests an appreciation of the remoteness of the location and its almost complete detachment from the modern world.
