⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 STAR FRIDAY! From Christoph!

"We had an amazing experience at Jellurgal Aboriginal Cultural Centre! Our guides, Kailen and Keeley, were fantastic, and Kailen is one of the best storytellers we’ve ever heard. The Dreamtime stories were so captivating—we could have listened for hours.

This is our first time in Australia, and honestly, it made us a little sad that it took three weeks of traveling before we really got to connect with the true history of this country. It often feels like Australia’s official history starts with the arrival of the First Fleet, but there is such a rich and deep history long before that.

We truly hope that places like Jellurgal help bring more awareness to this important part of Australia’s past. It’s an experience we won’t forget and something we’d highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn more about the incredible culture of the First Nations people of the Gold Coast."

Our Story

Jellurgal Aboriginal Cultural Centre is the first of its kind in operation, exclusive to the Gold Coast. It has been authorised and established by the traditional land owners of the Gold Coast and supported by the parent organisation Kalwun Development Corporation. Jellurgal boasts a wide range of activities, governed by its proximity to the Burleigh Headland which truly was the focal point in Aboriginal lifestyle pre-contact. With daily guided tours, educational facilities, gift shop and art gallery and refreshments including tea, coffee and cakes, Jellurgal is the perfect place to re-connect with Jarra “Mother Earth” and unwind.
