Darwin

Darwin is a tropical city featuring a laid-back lifestyle and a rich cultural diversity. From Darwin, visitors can undertake day trips to a variety of attractions, both natural and man made, or head off to Kakadu National Park, Litchfield Park, the Tiwi Islands or further northward to Asia. Day trips out of Darwin include river cruises where crocodiles abound in their natural habitat, wetlands lookouts and displays, wildlife parks, sunset sailing on the harbour, or chartering boats for fishing or sailing. Darwin is famous for its markets: the Mindil Beach Sunset Market every Thursday and Sunday evening throughout the Dry Season (May-October), the Parap Markets every Saturday morning, and the Rapid Creek Markets every Sunday morning.
