Mornington Shire Area

Mornington Shire encompasses the Wellesley Islands in the Gulf of Carpentaria, with the largest settlement on Mornington Island. Lardil culture and language remain strong, and sea country provides fish and turtle for community feasts. Residents are proud of their art centre where traditional designs are reinterpreted in contemporary works, and many gather on sand dunes at day’s end to watch brilliant sunsets paint the gulf in oranges and pinks far from mainland crowds.
