conveniently located for exploring Kakadu national park. rooms were a good size and beds were comfortable but the bathrooms need upgrading and the lighting was poor. staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. dining options were limited but it is a remote location.

Jabiru itself s a stopping point only, the town has pretty much closed down since the mining operation closure. it does have a supermarket. the surrounding areas of Kakadu National Park are awesome, i would stay at Cooinda next time I am in the area.

Jabiru township provides a central facility for visiting Kakadu and all of it s various attractions and activities. Limited food options available, particularly during the day. Lunch was either premade sandwich or meat pie at the service station or some lasagne, meat pie or tinned food from the Foodland.

Jabiru in Kakadu Nat Park is a small town that is slowly dying. 80% of shops/banks/cafes have closed down as the Uranium Mine has closed. Not a lot of accommodation options either. I wouldn't come back. Only positive is that it's close to the Yellow Water Wetlands boat cruise. Stay elsewhere in Kakadu.

Kakadu in general is a must do! Jabiru on the other hand provides that nice little town where you can access services yet be able to drive out into the area of Kakadu and be exposed to some amazing sites, waterfalls, rock arts and the overall cultural aspects to visiting the Kakadu area. Learn about the people of the land, their cultures and the ways they lived and learned to survive until today is in itself incredible. I can't recommend Kakadu enough, go see for yourself but definitely check out Jabiru when you head over.

Two nights are needed at least. The Cahills crossing was a great watch to see all the crocodiles moving around. The Mecure restaurant and hotel is a great stay and they have everything you need. Make sure you come prepare with spare water, fuel and snacks for in the car. It is long drives out to different water falls and walks.
