Border Store

Top choice in Kakadu National Park


Run by Michael and Amm, charming little Border Store is full of surprises, including real coffee, sweet cakes and delicious Thai-cooked Thai food – a real treat. You can book a Guluyambi Cultural Cruise on the East Alligator River or a tour to Arnhem Land, or browse the small selection of books and artwork.

The front terrace is the best perch for eating.
