Darwin & Surrounds

Discover the Northern Territory’s tropical capital that’s ready for adventure year-round.

Treat your tastebuds and indulge your senses with mouth-watering outdoor sunset markets and waterfront dining around the city; sample bush-tucker inspired menus, fresh seafood or try a big bowl of laksa (a local favourite). Uncover the Top End’s Territory Arts Trail featuring contemporary and traditional works from internationally renowned Aboriginal artists.

Ride the swell at the popular wave pool, swim in the saltwater lagoon or relax and recharge at the Darwin Waterfront. From the interactive museums highlighting the city’s WWII history to cruising the sparkling harbour and the kaleidoscope of colours at sunset – welcome to your Top End escape.
