We arrived at Seisa, 40km south of the tip of Cape York. Our home for the next 5 days. North of the Jardine River, the area is known as the Northern Peninsula Area. The population is a mix of Aboriginal, Islander, European and Asian. Seisa is Islander, Bamaga (7km down the road) is a mix of about 4-5 Islander groups, Injinoo, Umagico and New Mapoon, also just down from Seisa are Aboriginal communities. The culture in the area is strong and people continue to practice their traditions in everyday life.
