Incentives
As a health professional in the Territory, you may be eligible for:
Tennant Creek is a close knit town with a population of 3,000 people. Tennant Creek features one main street down the centre of the town, lined with trees and friendly, locally owned stores. Everyone knows everyone - and a quick trip to the shops often turns into a catch-up with the neighbours.
The lifestyle in Tennant Creek is even more relaxed than the Top End region. Spend the weekends swimming at Mary Ann Dam or 4WD through the Davenport ranges. The town is enriched by the comforts of country culture and boasts a friendly and relaxed lifestyle while enjoying a range of supermarkets, cafes and pubs, hostels and motor inns.
A leisurely drive 95km south of Tennant Creek is the Devils Marbles - ancient granite boulders that defy gravity.
The Devils Marbles - also known as Karlu Karlu in the Warumungu language - is Barkly’s most famous landmark. Formed over millions of years, these boulders continuously crack and erode, so they will look completely different every time you visit.
Stroll down the paths and learn more about how this natural phenomenon was created via the information boards. Or camp the night in one of the scenic bush camping areas and spend the night around a cosy fireplace.
