The location

Doomadgee is a community in the northwest of Queensland, located in the Gulf of Carpentaria, approximately 140km from the Northern Territory border and 93km west of Burketown

The township is a successful, largely Indigenous, community, being the traditional homelands of the Gangalidda and Waanyi people, and is governed by the Doomadgee Aboriginal Shire Council ( https://www.doomadgee.qld.gov.au/ ). Many other people from Indigenous nations across Australia have also made Doomadgee their home including the Garrawa and Yunjulla people

Fishing is a popular past time. There are fresh water crocodiles in the Nicholson River but it is generally considered safe to swim in the community side of the weir. There are two seasons in this area of Queensland, the Wet from October to February and the Dry starting in March
