Darwin and Surrounds


Darwin

Why go there?


Edged with palm trees and a shimmering blue ocean, Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory, is an ideal holiday destination to relax or explore!


There are plenty of accommodation and luxury holiday options in and around Darwin city, plus a wide range of short and extended guided tours departing daily. Local Darwin holiday activities include the Mindil Beach Sunset markets, nature-based & cultural tours and visiting local Aboriginal art galleries and museums. Darwin city and harbour attractions include the new wave pool at the Darwin Waterfront Precinct, historic tours of Darwin’s WWII tunnels, the Deckchair cinema and the unique seaside eateries of Stokes Hill Wharf Precinct.


There’s even more fun to be had out on the water with local and blue water fishing charters, jet boating, wildlife tours and sunset dinner cruises of Darwin Harbour. An hour’s travel north will get you to the tropical Tiwi Islands and their unique indigenous artists and cultural tours. Or, travel south along the Stuart Highway to find wildlife parks, Howard Springs National Park, Berry Springs National Park, the plunging waterfalls of Litchfield National Park and the jumping crocodiles tour of Adelaide River.


Head out on a guided tour with a local or pick up a hire car and find your own Darwin adventure! The possibilities are endless, talk to our NT travel experts today, we make it easy!
