Dharrpamiwuy (Middle Beach)
Overview
Dharrpamiwuy (Middle Beach) is located just five kilometres from Nhulunbuy via a sealed road and is at the end of the intersection leading to either Galuru (East Woody Beach) or Wirrwawuy (Cape Wirrawoi). This beach features a lovely wide stretch of white sand and plenty of shade from the several casuarina trees scattered about, making it the perfect spot to sit and take in your surrounds. If you are lucky you may even find one of the local food trucks parked up here serving the likes of fresh fish and chips or pizza. This beach is also the location of one of the Gove Peninsula's biggest events, the Nhulunbuy Rotary Club’s annual Beach Volleyball Tournament.
