From Boat to Plate - Our Story
Gulf of Carpentaria
The Gulf of Carpentaria a large bay shared by the Northern Territory and Queensland. Around 480klms wide and 640klms long, the waters are mostly shallow, with mudflats and mangroves lining its shores. Numerous creeks and rivers drain in the Gulf and is surrounded virtually by Aboriginal land, making it one of the most remote areas in Australia. An interesting cloud phenomenon occurs called the Morning Glory. Unique on Earth, the wave arrives regularly each spring and can exceed 1000klms in length and 10,000feet in height.
