Description

Closed Located 220km north of Broome at the tip of the Dampier Peninsula. The Federal Department of Transport previously controlled the land for the purposes of operating a lighthouse. In 1986 the lighthouse was automated and demanned, and the land was purchased by the Aboriginal Development Commission for the benefit of Aboriginal people. As a result the A.D.C., along with other Government Departments and the Bardi people chose to develop the area into a tourist complex, linking up traditional ways with the fast encroaching 21st century and all that it represents.
