Dongas are often used on outback properties in Queensland (and in WA) as accommodation for shearers or stockmen. Some are divided into 2-bed cubicles and others into toilet and shower facilities. They are in increasing usage for back packer accommodation in the Gulf and other areas of the tropics where accommodation might otherwise be limited. The donga at Kingfisher Park is very comfortable and costs $25 per night from memory; whereas on Shark Bay I stayed in a more humble donga for $11 per night. Birders can do far worse than stay in one.... Cheers |
