Find Local & Visiting Services in Un-Incorporated (Marrakai-Dougla Area

The Marrakai-Dougla community directory brings together essential services like health, disability and ageing support, community clubs and halls, Aboriginal and cultural services, education and training, legal and advocacy programs, environment and conservation, and recreation.

It also includes crisis support, accommodation, transport and youth programs, plus volunteering and self‑help groups across categories such as sport, arts, communication, and welfare assistance.

Due to the remote nature of the Marrakai-Dougla, many specialised health, legal and social services are provided by visiting specialists or regional organisations, complemented by programs run locally by community groups.

Marrakai‑Douglas Daly Region

This sparsely populated area east of Darwin spans wetlands, savannah and river systems around the Mary and Daly rivers. Cattle stations sit alongside floodplains teeming with birdlife, and fishing spots are treasured by those in the know. The Mary River National Park and Douglas Daly Hot Springs attract adventurous campers. Locals head to the Corroboree Billabong for barramundi fishing and relax in the warm pools of the Douglas Hot Springs after a long day on dusty tracks.
