 Description of Yulara

Yulara is a mixture of pure camping in tents, unpowered and powered camping and carvan sites. It has resort accommodation, food supplies, shopping, a hotel and several other places where you can have a prepared meal or a few beers. It is like a little town, it is well run and the rangers are really helpful. Excellent showers and toilet facilities, with a laundry as well. Plenty of tourist buses and more than one large aircraft arrives every day.
