Injinoo refers to Australian Aborigine people in Cape York Peninsula.

There are five communities which lie on the traditional country of the Injinoo peoples in the NPA of Cape York Peninsula: Bamaga, Seisia, Injinoo, Umagico and New Mapoon.

The traditional lands of the Injinoo Community extend from the Skardon River on the West Coast, and Captain Billy's Landing on the East Coast up to Pajinka at the top of Cape York.

The Injinoo people comprise five major tribal groupings: Anggamuthi (Seven Rivers-western), Atambaya (McDonell), Wuthathi (Whites and-south eastern), Yadhaykenu (Cairn Cross - eastern) and Gudang (Red Island, Somerset-northern) peoples.
