This was an interesting experience. there is plenty of time to do everything you could do on the island. I just followed the map and saw everything. The outdoor church, the new church, is worth the walk. The islanders are friendly and i never saw any incident with all the dogs that were there. The park where the boat pulls in, is a lovely place to sit. Probably the only place to get food on the island is the "bistro" or really its just a take away with tables undercover.

I was disappointed with the island visit. The ferry was great but there wasn't enough to see or do. The Museum was wonderful and so was the art gallery. However, the church, clothing shop and cafe were all shut. People who were doing their own tours were finished within 2 hours. There really wasn't anywhere to but food or coffee. Having said this the Tiwi Islanders are very friendly and helpful. If you do visit it's best to pay for an organised tour.

Late departure and rough trip home

Our trip home was extremely rough with most people being sick but staff were very attentive and caring they did a marvellous job thank you all. We were extremely disappointed that the boat was very late leaving as they waited for a group of workers, not knowing their circumstances we felt at least an apology would have been nice instead of the unhurried casual approach and boarding, not fair to other passengers who adhere to time constraints.
