We had a great time here. So much to see and the fact that the interpretation centre itself is free is amazing. So much to see and learn about the marine life but also just the Carpentaria shire in general. Great cafe and gift shop with lots of local features. Totally recommend this as a stop. Definitely do the tour and feed the Barra, walk around the dan and look at the fish
