THE BURKETOWN PUB

The best night in town

Where the hell is Burketown anyway?

Situated between savannah grasslands and the vast saltpans of the Gulf of Carpentaria, Burketown nestles beside the picturesque Albert River, some 200km by road from Normanton. If travelling from the Northern Territory, the town can be reached via Daly Waters and Doomadgee.
