FUEL
Access to GGBNP is by 4WD only ; tents , offroad campers or camper trailers , and / or a croc-proof boat may be towed in . If you have a small offroad van , you could try calling the Permit Office ( 08 8999 4814 ) to see if you are allowed to tow it in ; the information on the website is somewhat contradictory , but standard vans and large vans are certainly not permitted . Caravans can be stored in Jabiru at the Aurora Kakadu Lodge and Caravan Park ( 08 8979 2422 ).
Calculate your vehicle ' s fuel consumption carefully : it is 310km from Jabiru ( the last chance to buy fuel ) to Black Point in the national park ( 620km return ). Extra fuel is required for trips between Black Point , Smith Point , the campground ( about 5km each way ) and for the Coastal Drive .
The fact sheet provides accurate distances for fuel calculations . Your vehicle must be in top condition but carry tools , spare parts and at least one spare tyre . You can try calling the Black Point Ranger to check on road conditions before you leave , but the rangers are not always available .
