Couzen'S Lookout Camping Area

Couzens Lookout Camping Area sits beside the Mary River within Mary River National Park, roughly one hour's drive from Darwin in the Northern Territory.

The site offers secluded bush camping in a peaceful Top End setting, with a short walk leading to the lookout itself, which is well regarded for its panoramic views across surrounding floodplains, wetlands, and spectacular sunsets.

The area is popular for four-wheel driving, birdwatching, photography, and fishing, with nearby billabongs and boat ramps providing access to barramundi-rich waters.

As with all sites along the Mary River, visitors should exercise caution near the water due to the river's significant saltwater crocodile population and follow Be Crocwise guidelines when camping.
