Beach near Katherine, Australia

Katherine Travel Guide

Northern Territory, Australia

Katherine is a small city in Australia’s Northern Territory, with a population of 5,849. It is an inland destination rather than a coastal one, so the local setting is defined by the Northern Territory’s tropical landscape rather than beaches.

Air travellers can use RAAF Base Tindal (KTR), the airport serving Katherine. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so beach trips are not a central part of a Katherine itinerary.
