The Gove Peninsula is at the northeastern corner of Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory of Australia. The peninsula became strategically important during World War II when a Royal Australian Air Force base was constructed at what is now Gove Airport. The peninsula was involved in a famous court case known as the Gove land rights case, when local Yolngu people tried to claim native title over their traditional lands in 1971, after the Australian Government had granted a mineral lease to a bauxite mining company without consulting the local peoples. Today the land is owned by the Yolngu people.

rdfs:comment	Die Gove-Halbinsel (engl.: Gove Peninsula) liegt im äußersten Nordosten im Arnhem Land. Sie befindet sich an der Westküste des Gulf of Carpentaria, etwa 600 Kilometer östlich von Darwin, im Northern Territory in Australien. Das wirtschaftliche Zentrum der Halbinsel ist der Ort Nhulunbuy, der wegen der Ausbeutung eines der größten Bauxitvorkommen der Welt gegründet wurde. Der heutige auf der Gove-Halbinsel war im Zweiten Weltkrieg ein wichtiger Standort der RAAF, da eine japanische Invasion befürchtet wurde. Der Name der Halbinsel geht auf den Luftwaffenoffizier Pilot-Officer William Gove zurück, der im Zweiten Weltkrieg bei einem Flugzeugabsturz auf der Insel Milingimbi starb.
