Location

Nestled on its own private shore, Crab Claw Island Resort is located approximately 90 minutes by road from Darwin or a 20-minute charter flight. During high tides that exceed seven meters, the resort temporarily becomes an island, offering a rare experience of isolation. Surrounded by 2500 square kilometers of waterways, including saltwater estuaries and fresh creeks, nature is always at the forefront.

The island's restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, providing a diverse menu with a la carte options. Guests can request for the chef to prepare their fresh catch of the day for a unique dining experience. A fully licensed bar complements meals, offering a range of wines and icy cold beers.

Activities

Crab Claw Island caters to outdoor enthusiasts with opportunities for bushwalking around the island and fishing expeditions targeting over 30 species, including Barramundi and crabs. In addition to fishing, visitors can experience wildlife encounters during feeding times and may catch sight of turtles nesting when in season. The resort's unique landscape allows for various nature photography opportunities from sunrise to sunset.
