Recent efforts by local government and Indigenous organizations to bolster housing infrastructure aim to improve living standards while respecting cultural practices and the natural environment. The focus is often on sustainable development that benefits the local community and preserves the distinctive environment of the Arnhem Land.

Residents and visitors alike are often immersed in the local culture through participation in traditional ceremonies, art, and music. The natural beauty of the Arnhem Land surrounds the area, providing breathtaking landscapes and opportunities for outdoor activities such as bushwalking, fishing, and birdwatching.

Those who live in or visit Gul Gul often find the unique blend of culture, community, and nature to be a rewarding experience, despite the challenges posed by geographic and infrastructural constraints.
