Company information

Our story begins back in 1995 when Ben Kelly was living and working in Darwin. Ben discovered the rich fishing grounds in the Dundee Beach region area and loved the place so much that he made regular visits over the next 20 years. Ben’s brother John was a frequent visitor too, along with friends and workmates. It was on one of those many visits that the two brothers talked of building beachfront accommodation, somewhere to chill out after an adventurous day on the ocean. They found the perfect waterfront location but not long after John lost his life in a tragic accident. Ben vowed to remember the dream he shared with his brother. He opened the doors in 2017, naming it ‘Skippers’ after his brother’s middle name. John’s memory and a brother’s love is at the heart of our place. We hope you treasure Skippers as much as we do and that you find the time and space to reconnect with the special people in your life, to explore the beautiful surroundings and to create meaningful experiences together.

Neighbourhood information

The Dundee Beach region, This region, on the edge of Fog Bay and the Timor Sea, is renowned for barramundi, reef fishing and sport fishing. Add in mud crabbing along the Finnis River estuaries, along with hand fishing from the beach, and you can see why those in the know have treasured this place for years. Dundee Beach isn’t just a fishing paradise though. There are hiking trails, beach walks, superb sunsets and popular swimming holes at Litchfield National Park. Plus, there’s the opportunity to catch up with family and old friends—or make new ones. If you want to kick back and relax in tranquil, natural surroundings, you couldn’t find a more perfect spot.
