Browse the Black Point Culture Centre, located at the Black Point Ranger Station in the Garig Ganuk Barlu National Park. The centre offers travellers a unique insight into the rich history of the Cobourg Peninsula. Aboriginal people, Macassan traders and European pioneers have all made their mark on this land in varying ways. The displays include traditional Aboriginal bush tucker, history and artefacts, evidence of Macassan trading and a history on the Victoria Settlement. A display on some recent history shows how an Indonesian fisherman was blown across from the Indonesian islands in his canoe, which is now showcased at the museum. Permit fees apply to access Garig Gunak Barlu National Park.
