Here is a list that I have for you, remember that some of these times will vary depending on the size of the tide. A Neap tide (small tide) will travel up a river a lot slower if at all than a spring tide (big tide) There is a
creek on the way in, a few K’s from the
camping ground. You may not notice it as it is so small, but if you follow the track off the main road, it opens out to a nice
creek mouth. You can launch your boat here and have a nice fish and mud crabbing if it gets too windy to go out offshore from the pier. We found it a good place to leave from to go to Port Essington as the wind would pick up in the Arvo’s at the time of year when we were there and it saved a few K’s in the boat. There is a good fishing book with lots of local maps and GPS points you can get from all the fishing stores in
Darwin or
Katherine. Hope this helps. Have fun.
