The 36 best spots to watch the sunset in Darwin

Loved this beach, although it is currently being tended to by the local municipality. It is a very lively spot for watching the sunset, and it can get especially busy on nights that the night market is open (Mindil Beach Night Market). It is well worth spending a few hours there at sunset taking it all in. Lovely views, and it is a place that seems to draw the crowds and bring people together. Bring a towel, blanket, or chairs to rest and enjoy the sunset. There are also some seashells around, and the sand is soft. The area is well kept and clean.

Mindil beach market is a must see when visiting Darwin. Culturally diverse with everything from croc & buffalo pies to stuffed chicken wings, fresh calamari, crepes, terrific Indian at Dr Yummy & much more! Settle with your food & watch the sunset to the cool tunes from 1 of our first nation's buskers playing acoustic guitar as you dreamily watch yachts sail off into the sunset. Catch a camel ride along the beach if that's your thing. Later view some whip cracking courtesy of Mick's whips & browse the many market stalls with a plethora of things on offer. Family friendly & one of the best nights you'll have in Darwin. Guaranteed 🐊🤠🌴

Beautiful beach with great markets. Fantastic sunsets

Fine red brown established sand dunes. Sunsets framed by tree trunks as the sun sinks into the vast ocean. Vibrant market with many flavours, clothing stalls with fantastic printed designs & a natural mosquito repellent cream on offer.

Great place to watch the sunset over the ocean and to walk your dogs 🐕 off leash. If you don't like crowds, don't go on the nights the markets are on. You also can not take your dogs to the markets, and they must be on leash on market nights.

The best place to go on a Thursday (or Sunday) night. The number of stalls were down, assumedly due to the Darwin festival, but still worth the experience. If in Darwin you just have to go to these markets...

Recommend going there at sunset for some of the most beautiful sunset views you will see. Also go there when the markets are on, there's heaps of great stalls and tasty food available.

Great place to relax, do some sport, and enjoy the nature around Darwin. Between the salt lake, the sea, and the colorful horizon at sunset, it’s always a pleasure to get lost at East Point Reserve. You can see beautiful colorful birds, wallabies, even snakes… Be careful with sand flies if you come at dawn or for the sunset (they are very present). We loved spending 1 month chilling around East Point Reserve. Water point available for people doing sport. Free toilets and showers, not always clean.

The perfect getaway place to have a picnic, BBQ or play with friends and family members. They have a big playground for kids and plenty of tables around if you want to sit down and eat. Lots of people were swimming in the lake, we just sat down on the lawn and enjoyed the sunset. Easy to access with plenty of parking available. There are lots of shaded areas so it won't get too hot as there seems to always be a little breeze everytime we have been there. Good place to practice stand up paddle boarding, swimming in the lake (after checking and confirming its safe on the government website considering potential crocodiles and bacteria levels).

Definitely check out the tide for this walk. I went twice but missed the high tide. A beautiful spot even with the tide out. It can be a hot walk so I would suggest at hat and some water.

Such a nice place for a walk or a picnic!! Stunning views of the ocean too

Quiet uncrowded mangrove area with pathways and bbq and picnic areas, water fountains and toilet facilities. Beautiful views round the bays and plenty of parking. Memorial for the first flight London to Australia nearby too.

The reserve is lovely with plenty of walking trails. There are BBQ areas, toilets and lots of wallabies! There are also old bunkers from the bombing of darwin era, this place has a lot of history to it, definitely worth a look.

Absolutely gorgeous coastline. 2 visits and saw wallabies, dolphins, sea turtles, sand monitors, and even a shark cruising around. Loved my visits

One of the best spots in darwin! So many good and beverage choices! Ice cream! Tacos! Seafood! Its got it all. There is a dedicated fishing area also. Carpark can get full quickly, i recommended walking there if possible, taxis do frequent the car park also

The Wharf is 3 star but the Flying Doctor museum is 5 stars. Harbour cruises leave from the Wharf or just sit and eat from the food stores and watch the sea. The Flying Doctor museum was the best with their interactive displays

We spent a few hours here doing the RFDS museum, its Hologram shows, aircraft, and VR experience of the bombing of Darwin. We then took a harbour cruise re the bombing which was fabulous and finished with lunch. We really enjoyed our time here with great staff across all businesses.

We had a gaze and graze cruise that left from Stokes Hill Wharf. It was amazing but we should have also visited one of the many eateries on the wharf. Just not enough time.

This is a lovely walk coming from the convention center or waterfront precinct. Once you get there (hop on and off bus takes you there too) there are several eateries, locals fishing, Royal Flying Doctor service and more. Overlooking the water is a beautiful sight to see! Cruise ships come in and out of here as well.

It's a nice place to visit with friends or family in the afternoon. You can see sunset. You can fishing too. There are some food stalls. They sell Asian food, Mexican food, seafood and west food. You can learn about the bombing of Darwin in here.

Royal Flying Doctor and bombing of Darwin Harbour Outstanding audio visuals, excellent information - truly engaging and immersion. Highly recommended.

Gorgious spot for sunset, good truck near by and playground for the kids. The atmosphere is pretty calm as well as having community vibes as everyone is out and about. Dog friendly also

Beaches, walking, sunrise and sunsets. Just amazing.

Absolutely beautiful walk, so relaxing with top views.

Sea breezes, high tides and popular food vans. Great place to view the beautiful Darwin sunsets

Beautiful sunsets can be seen from here.

Great place to breath under sunset and hear the wave on the beach.

Very good spot for dinner, there are a few areas to avoid due to drunk people however still relaxing and the best views of Darwin Sunsets.

Very happy. We sat up top and the view was beautiful. Nice music and generous platters with local produce. I had the gourmet and my daughter had the garden platter. If you love meat go for the gourmet one. The weather was calm and warm. It was lovely watching as the sun set and Darwin City lights began to twinkle. This is my third time (in a span of 25 years). It's a must for me when I visit NT.

Did the sunset buffet dinner cruise, lovely boat with wonderful staff. There could have been more hot dishes but we got full. Dessert was pretty good too. Apart from the sunset the boat itself does not venture far out. They don't ask you when you are booking but there are a number of tables on the outdoor deck, see if you can ask for one.

By far the best dinner cruise I have done and a MUST do for any SOLO travellers!! For most solo travellers eating out isn’t always the best experience as most places don’t know what to do with you however this is not the case with the Charles Darwin buffet sunset harbour cruise! Tonight I had the pleasure of sitting at my own table at the very front of the ship with 3 other solos next to me, it was great company while still making it about your individual experience and not turning it into a group booking - not to mention we clearly had the best seats on board!🤩 The food was great and all the staff were amazing! I do have to make a special mention to one of the crew tho - Lidia - what an absolute gem! Not only was she attentive to what anyone needed but she made the entire experience feel very personal! If she wasn’t working she would have made a great addition to the solo front row! 🤩🤩

Interstate visitors, booked the sunset cruise gaze & graze option. Arrived early enough & followed instructions given to us to head to wharf 3, lots of people waiting with some having a dinner booking & others doing same as us. Boat has 3 levels -dining on 1st & 2nd level, G&G on the sun deck. Boarding was a bit chaotic with inpatient people & the walk down the jetty is very steep but has handrails & slip resistant tread, they managed to get everyone on board. Staff were all friendly & service was hectic for them in that first 30 mins or so with everyone wanting drinks given it was still hot in the afternoon. 6pm departure & around 7pm we had our individual gourmet platters, there was so much food on them, we could not get through it all. We sailed at a good pace & was able to enjoy all the sights along the way & staff were attentive to any needs. Bar tabs finalised at your table & docked back around 8pm. Would highly recommend this sunset cruise to anyone looking for a great night in the water & wants to see the amazing sunsets the NT has to offer. We were staying at Adina apartments & we walked down to pier before & after cruise (10mins). Thanks to all the staff for making it a great cruise.

I recently had the pleasure of taking a cruise with Darwin Harbour Cruises, and it was an experience I won't soon forget. From start to finish, everything about the experience was top-notch. First and foremost, the seafood platter was absolutely amazing. It was clearly made with the freshest ingredients, and every item was cooked to perfection. The variety of seafood on offer was impressive, and it was all so delicious that I couldn't pick a favorite. The service provided by the staff was also exceptional. They were friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. It was clear that they take pride in their work and genuinely care about their customers' experience. The cruise itself was a delight as well. The boat was comfortable and well-maintained, and the views of Darwin Harbour were simply breathtaking. The knowledgeable guides provided interesting commentary throughout the cruise, giving us a deeper understanding of the area's history and wildlife. Overall, I highly recommend Darwin Harbour Cruises to anyone visiting Darwin. Whether you're a seafood lover, a nature enthusiast, or just looking for a unique and enjoyable way to experience the beauty of Darwin Harbour, this cruise is sure to deliver. The combination of great seafood, excellent service, and stunning views make it an experience not to be missed.

Locals for over 20 years (between us), we loved being on this cruise. Sometimes you just need to see a Darwin sunset from the water to remind you we live in a truly stunning place. The food was delicious and plentiful, the staff were professional and friendly and thanks to the sunset gods for turning on a spectacular sunset for us. Would recommend to locals and visitors alike.

The sunset views on the cruise were absolutely beautiful and the boat ride was calm and relaxing. Staff were friendly and the overall vibe was really nice. I really enjoyed the food but if I had to comment one thing it would be adding more variety – especially hot meal options would really enhance the overall experience and make it feel more like a premium sunset dinner cruise. Overall my experience was great and I would recommend to family and friends.

It was a nice park with a lovely grassed area and water outlook but the big slide only has a wire climbing apparatus for the kids to get up. My grandson was upset he couldn't go up there but I was fearful of him falling. Would be nice for a safer option.

Decent playground on the foreshore. Grassy area, picnic tables, BBQ, shade sails, water bubbler, flying fox, and water views. Plenty of paid parking available.

I had fun working out at the outdoor exercise area 💪🏽. Nice to see families and children have good time in the children playground next to it🤸🏼‍♂️.

Play equipment for all ages. Shade sails and trees. Shelters and seating. Toilets and water bubbler close by. Plenty of parking (not sure of its metered, we walked). Nice paths along Esplanade. Adult exercise equipment in same varsity

The equipment is good, the environment is pretty clean and there was plenty of resting spaces around. but, here is some downsides. the big slide has gum inside it and the toilets was dirty. though, i will give this place a 4/5 stars.

Good place for a workout, family friendly place. Good for small picnic.

An excellent park. Very comprehensive. The kids loved it.

The natural harbour is extensively large, filled with ships, boats and crocs. A pleasant place to be out on the water

Darwin harbor is absolutely beautiful, clean and very much worth a evening's cruise

A great harbour filled with history. Fort Hill Wharf is the principal docking area for cruise ships and Stokes Hill Wharf for harbour cruises, also an amazing virtual reality display on the bombing of Darwin and the flying doctor service. There are also great eateries on this wharf. The harbour is estimated to be 2.5 to 4 times the size of Sydney harbour and is home to some 200+ crocodiles ... so don't go swimming!

The harbour is beautiful, great city. Photos taken from on-board the Skandi Darwin. A wonderful vessel that specialises in underwater installations for the shell Prelude. Use remote underwater ROV,s.

Darwin is a very interesting place to visit, there are only two seasons in Darwin wet and dry, when we visited it was the wet season meaning it was very hot and VERY VERY humid, be prepared. The population of Darwin is about 140,000 not big by Australian cities, the people are very helpful and friendly. Around the harbour are a number of tourist attractions, one that sticks to mind is the Royal Australian flying Doctor service, really worth a visit. Another museum tells the history of the part played by Darwin in the second world war facts a lot of people don't know.

HI GUYS DARWIN HARBOUR IS CAPABLE OF ALMOST ANY SIZE SHIP THAT CAN BERTH IN DARWIN HARBOUR ESPECIALLY SINCE THE HARBOUR HAS BEEN DREDGED AS IMPEX CAME TO DARWIN AS THEY NEEDED TO DREDGE IT SO THE BIG GAS SHIP'S COULD GET INTO DARWIN HARBOUR AND CRUISE SHIP'S AS WELL ALSO A LOT OF EXPORT WITH LIVE CATTLE MARKET ONE GOOD THING IS YOU CAN THROW A FISHING LINE IN THE HARBOUR AND STILL CATCH FISH OUR HARBOUR MAY NOT BE THE BIGGEST BUT IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR US TERRTORIEAN CHEERS BILLY.

Nice place to go to the Walf. Have lunch. Or a fish with the kids. Or the wife. Also to catch the big cruise ships when they doc in,to show the kids, I was lucky anuff to catch the QE2 when she come to Darwin menu years ago. Also there is a nice all you can eat resturant there, The JETTI. Best stakes there. Ect.

Great place to take a picnic, relax and watch the sun set

A good marina tucked in behind Fannie Bay. It's an extensive area with shops and plenty of restaurants as well as apartments. The marina appears to be well kept. If you are sailing into the marina, you will need to call ahead to ensure they have space for your yacht. Plus, you will need to enter via a lock. If you miss the lock hours, it's easy to moor in the bay or near the channel. I'm not sure about yachty facilities as I didn't need to use them. I would suggest they need to sort out their rubbish disposal options. There are lots of dining options, and it's a great spot to go and watch the sunset on the grassy bank above the beach.

Cullen Bay Marina, 8 Weeks Well Spent Gabrielle was an absolute superstar. She consistently went above and beyond always happy to help, receiving our parts packages, keeping us in the loop, and making us feel welcome and at home. The marina staff and the lockmaster were just as friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We spent 8 weeks here while waiting on upgrades and parts, and genuinely enjoyed our time. From chatting with local business owners to digging into beers and parmigianas at Lola’s and topping off our nights with ice cream, it was a great place to be based. Thanks to the whole team for making it feel like a home port.

From the marina, one can appreciate the view of the lovely houses and boats. There are many walking areas around the marina, leading down to the beach where you can witness a beautiful sunset.

I just want to stay there. Very pleasant indeed. Just a hop and a skip from downtown Darwin. A beer or wine by the marina or maybe a meal, before or after a spin around the bay on the ferry. Lovely.

If you want to do fish feeding for free throw some food out for them off the dock around dusk and there are loads of them in there that come to eat! Our toddler loved it and we saw a huge group of various fish

4.5 stars Luxury place. Apartments, restaurants, lawn, and ferry-terminal. Came here late afternoon for 3 times in 6 days trip in Darwin. Not hard to find a free carpark here. Beautiful place for eating, gathering, waking and sunset. Relaxing.

This dinner cruise was excellent. The team on the Spirit of Darwin were friendly and professional and went over and above to make sure we had a great time. The commentary was really interesting and the quality of the sound system was actually fantastic compared with what can often be the case on such cruises. I loved the beanbags on the front deck; it gave it more of a 'cruising' feel rather than sitting inside the whole time. The food was great and there was a really good variety of drinks available for purchase. Overall a memorable evening.

Booking of 6 for a birthday celebration. Service, food, crew all fantastic. Would highly recommend.

I am certain that your cruises are exceptional, but why would you obstruct the view of the sunset from the primary Cable beach viewing point? There are numerous individuals on the beach; therefore, I kindly request that you move slightly to the side of the main viewing platform for the benefit of others.

An amazing evening! Penny and the girls were great. I'll be recommending this cruise to everyone. And the fish and chips were fresh and hot. Totally worth it and I look forward to doing it again. Well done (girl) team 🙌

What a hidden gem! This family-owned and operated cruise was the perfect ending to our travels in Darwin. Would recommend to all my friends but none of them are Aussies!!! Great tour of the city and wonderful views, we enjoyed our literal last minute booking and dinner with the cruise staff being fun to talk with and extremely knowledgable. Dinner was extra tasty and the appetizers as we cruised were a nice bonus. Highly recommend versus other cruises!!!! Thanks

Friendly staff and nice food, we had a dinner upgrade canape's commentary drink, which is $100 each. The captain gave a darwin geographical condition and some history introduction, it made this tour totally complete, highly recommend to join spirit sunset cruises.

What a fantastic experience. From our first call to arrange a large group to the dinner cruise. Service was nothing short of excellent, food delicious. Thank you Michelle and all of the staff for making our night wonderful. I would recommend.

Don’t forget to Find pork and lamb Kebab in here . Its great taste. Enjoy awesome kebab and Colourful sunset. 😍 Yummiya Food .

What a beautiful place. I love Cullen Bay. Restaurants overlooking the marina and the beach. A large park looking out over the water. Many people come here to watch the sunset, it's a popular place. We started our harbour cruise from here. We found it easy to get a park during the day.

Beautiful waterfront of sandy beach. With some good restaurants nearby. Lots of parking lots and other facilities.

Lovely place to visit, walk on the beach, or eat and drink at one of the local establishments.

Cullen Bay is a beautiful spot with a small beach and parkland as well as waterfront restaurantsfacing the marina.

If you visit Darwin, put 'Cullen Bay' on your list of places to visit. What a beautiful area. A lovely place to sit at the waters edge and watch the sunset. Several great eateries all located in the area.

A beautiful spot to picnic and enjoy tropical summer a sunset

Such a beautiful spot for a walk. The path is quite narrow and not really enough room for the mountain bikes whizzing along it but it's a beautiful spot nonetheless.

Definately recommend visiting the Museum and Art Gallery of the NT. There is a lot to see here from the entomology displays, cyclone Tracey exhibit and the amazing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. I would definately set aside more time than you expect to look at everything on display. We were lucky enough to visit during the Telstra NATSIA display. The artwork was so varied and captivating it was difficult to select a favourite to vote for.

Great place to spend a couple of hours. Very Interesting exhibitions. Lots of history and culture here. Friendly staff. Only downside is that the bicycle parking was not shaded. Not wanting to return to a melted saddle i had to park it accross the road at the ski club.

What an amazing museum! So many exhibits to see and learn about. They have something for everyone including art, animals (sea, land, and air), local Darwin history, maritime history, and much more. Oh and it's also FREE?!?

MAGNT is a small but wonderfully curated museum — and best of all, completely free to enter (though small donations are appreciated). After our 5-day road trip from Alice Springs, it was a no-brainer stop upon arriving in Darwin. The exhibits were diverse and engaging, featuring a beautiful showcase of local fauna, Indigenous art, and a deeply moving section dedicated to Cyclone Tracy. Visiting on a Wednesday meant few crowds, making the experience calm, easy to navigate, and unhurried — a real plus. The well air-conditioned rooms offered a refreshing escape from the heat and humidity outside. Overall, MAGNT is a hidden gem that’s well worth a visit, especially given its accessible location and free entry. Highly recommended for anyone exploring Darwin.

Amazing museum with lots of information about various things! It was free, just need to check in at the start, and air conditioned which is always lovely! Very cool and interesting exhibits

Very nice and interesting display of cultural art and fauna found in NT. Recommend spending half a day here. Allocated 2 hours initially, but I had to return the next day for extra 3 hours.

This Museum exceeded our expectations, especially as it’s free. Very interesting, lovely staff, also great cafe and a wonderful gift shop if you’re looking for a special aboriginal momento. Well worth visiting.

Lovely atmosphere and always a vibe. Lush greenery and lagoon swimming is a treat..great dining and array of good choices. Boutiques to shop and businesses to pamper yourself. Stayed at waterfront apartments and you are smack in centre of it all. Easy access to cruise terminal too which was a bonus for us arriving from a cruise. Plenty of happy hour venues and shirt stroll to wat tunnels and main drag of town and tourist highlights on foot. God I love this place

Coool place. Love how there’s a lot of restaurants with happy hours too amidst the salty pools, playgrounds and wave 🌊 pool (Fee). So much to offer here’s there’s even a water playground (Fee). Great place to hang out and/or cool off!

Great place for families and travellers to visit and enjoy, refreshing water play at free and affordable options. Close to facilities, park areas, shops, restaurants and icecreams. Easily accessible from the city centre.

2nd time to visit the Darwin Waterfront Precinct. There is an abundance of parkland space to pull up a picnic rug or have a cafe meal at some of the eateries dotted around the Waterfront. There is also a wave pool, inflatable diving platform and a protected lagoon to have a swim. You can also have a nice stroll along the piers that runs around the the waterfront.

Amazing spot to stay and play. Only a short walk to the mall and the centre of town. Access to amazing restaurants on the waterfront with a massive wave pool...

Lovely spot to sit for a while and it looked like lots of fun was being had while cooling off in the lagoon. After showers, public toilets all neat and clean. A decent range of eateries, and the Trampoline icecream is made there and was delicious.

Loved this place. They have done an amazing job. Wave pool was fun for adults and kids and so many nice places around for lunch or just a drink. Can't wait to come back

Quite good if your ok with self guided. There was a lot to look at and the information was good but you need a fair amount of time to read everything. The interactive screens are good and the show was informative but left out a lot of details, leaving you searching for more info. I thought I would have a better understanding of the history leaving the theatre, but then found it in pieces while walking around the property.

The Darwin Military Museum is a must-visit if you’re in Darwin! 🇦🇺✨ I found it fascinating because it really brings the city’s history to life, especially the events of 1942 during World War II. Walking through the museum, you get to see an impressive collection of army trucks 🚛, uniforms 🎖️, and historic weapons 🔫. The displays are well set out and give you a real sense of what Darwin went through during the bombing raids. The multimedia presentations and exhibits make the history feel alive — it’s not just reading information, it’s like stepping back in time. If you love history, the military, or just want to understand Darwin on a deeper level, this place is definitely worth the visit. 🙌

WOW. This has to one of the best museums I have visited in a long time. The cinema was so great and the movie was very well made. Displays were also well worth the visit, and as someone coming from Europe, it was nice to see all the exhibits and get a view on the war from the other side of the world. We spent good well over two hours and we would definetely come again. Thank you

Awesome museum. Lots of cool displays and there's a huge outdoor area. Lots to learn from WWII and the defence members who were part of various wars.

For the war historians this museum is a must. Be prepared to spend at least half a day there. There is an interesting film presentation which should not be missed and a number of interactive panels to explore.

Great history, vehicles, remembering our defence forces and an amazing display and memories from Holocaust survivors. It was the usual hot day, but really pleasant covering the acres through shaded paths and gardens.

Visited as part of WW2 Half Day Tour by Land & Sea recent Fri 25/7. Blown away literally! Only visited war memorial museums previously. This is on the actual WW2 Fortification heritage listed site on Darwin's military zone East Point area. The best part is outside - Armoured tanks & military vehicles, Bailey Bridges, recreated living quarters, Gun emplacement building on its original site with exhibits in bunker area surrounded by memorial plaques outside. Plus Holocaust indoor mini complex - it is a huge area set amongst gargantuan Banyan trees & nature's camouflage. So our allocated 1.5 hours was never going to be enough. I watched the Defence of Darwin experience when the war siren activated. After this - did a quick whizz inside & headed out. Covered almost all outdoor exhibits & military fortification by speed reading & taking pics to peruse later. Thankful indeed to live in peaceful times but also in absolute awe of the might, size & sheer intimidation of the military vehicles & equipment of yore. The Furphy water tank in good condition was another highlight- the phrase "to spin a furphy" originated!

A premier Darwin highlight that is equally informative, engrossing & educational. Recounts not only the origins of the crucial medical & allied health services Australia's Flying Doctors Services provide to the remote & inaccessible outback regions but also the WW2 Bombing of Darwin from a different perspective. After half day tour of Darwin's WW2 bombarment the day prior, I should have been fatigued by overload of info on this subject matter but not! The VR & holographic presentations are brief & totally "eye witness" immersive experience not to be missed. Excellent & moving tribute to essential services RFDS provides to health & mental well-being of remote communities. The origin of this service by Rev. John Flynn & others who contributed is illuminating as is the association with Quensland & NT Aerial Services (Qantas). The VR that showcases this section is in 2 parts: one takes you soaring over the red centre of this continent with pilot's narrative. 2nd: you are in the plane in an emergency situation with a real patient (not confronting). A sensory appreciation for the services & skills of highly trained nurse & navigating pilot. Explore the interior of an actual RFDS plane. Facilty staff are very welcoming & helpful with suggestions on how best to utilise your 1.5 to 2 hours here. A free courtesy shuttle bus operates to pick up & drop off in front of facilty from 11.30 am onwards every 15 mins (check the post outside for times & locations). Operates only from upper areas to this lower Wharf facility which is quite an uphill climb to return. Was almost 2km walk from my hotel middle of Esplanade to get down here but an eye pleasing cliff edge scenic walk heading towards Darwin Waterfront via Skybridge. Got here just after 9.00 am opening y'day Sun 27/7/25. Much quieter! Avoid VR strap on after a sweaty walk - fogs up the lenses ☺️. Courtesy wipes & sanitisers provided for before & after use. Excellent gift shop here. Loved it! ❤️❤️

I owe the RFDS a debt I will never be able to pay and the Darwin, VR experience was fantastic thank you. Keep up the good work.

Blown away by this place! The hologram videos are informative and entertaining, the other displays are great too!

This visit was an amazing experience. We were welcomed by a staff that on few words told us what can we see and what order would work best. That really saved us a lot of time. The 2 hologram stories quite informative, about the bombing of Darwin and how Royal Flying Doctor Service was born and is operated. We checked out a plane with RFDS equipment and the virtual reality experience about bombing of Darwin was quite a treat. The souvenirs store had lots of new and original items. They passed with Flying colours. Highly recommended!

This place is awesome.The movies were so entertaining and interesting. The Virtual Goggles were a totally new experience and had you right there. It's a fascinating place to learn about not only the RFDS but the bombing of Darwin which interestingly happened where this center is. Trish was extremely lovely and helpful.Fantastic and Highly recommend. Phil and Karen LANDWATCH AUSTRALIA

So much to see and do! A great way to donate to the RFDs as well. There’s a huge gift shop with loads of options, there’s movies to watch, heaps of interactive displays, you could easy spend half a day here. It’s cheaper if you package it up with the aviation museum as well

This tourist facility is not only about the Royal Flying Doctors Service but also about the bombing of Darwin. It has lots of interesting and interactive displays, including VR stations, interactive windows, and a holographic theatre, amongst other things. My boy loved the flight simulation and kept him entertained for a while.

A great experience, a good range of food stalls and an amazing sunset to sit and watch. I visited about 12 years ago and these markets seemed to be lacking craft stalls this time, however was a good local experience. We had ice cream and watched some people perform at the stage area which was lovely. Parking was really easy too

28 Sep 2025 // Back at the market before leaving Darwin tomorrow. We got there around 6 pm and spent about 20 minutes finding a parking spot—definitely come early if you’re driving! The Sunday crowd was much bigger compared to Thursday when we first visited. Tried the pork stick (AUD 6) after a long queue—super fatty, juicy, and very salty.. Also grabbed the garlic butter corn cob (AUD 9), and it was amazing! The vendor asked if we wanted salt, I said no, and it was still delicious. Highly recommend eating the corn while it’s hot! 25 Sep 2025 // Came to the market around 4+ and it was already crowded. There’s a wide variety of food — from Chinese to Thai, Mexican, Japanese, Korean and more. We settled for a kebab and a bowl of chicken laksa. The kebab was really good at AUD15. The flatbread was crispy, generously filled with chicken, and the mix of ingredients inside made it delicious. The chicken laksa was less impressive. Coming from Singapore, I found it weak in flavor compared to our spicier version. The Darwin version was sweeter, with a strong coconut taste. It had so much chicken that I could hardly find the noodles. For dessert, I tried the churros in the “must-try” Lotus flavor. It didn’t seem freshly made and wasn’t as crispy as expected. Lotus is definitely sweet — I probably clocked my sugar intake for the whole year with that dessert. I also got 10% off for paying cash at the Laska stall. Credit cards are widely accepted but come with a 1.6–1.9% surcharge, so cash is a better option, even though I usually prefer going cashless.

I really enjoyed my 2 hours here and the Korean food I had, which was excellent, with lots of other national foods available. Certainly vibrant, and crowded, but parking was easy and plentiful, at least earlier in the evening. You can’t take a dog into the market, a shame but which is probably for the best as it was packed. The sunsets are fantastic to watch from here and even better from the vantage points on the dunes. It’s worth going to whilst on you travels

I always visit the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets while I am in Darwin, as it is always a highlight for me:) The markets run every Thursday and Sunday from 4 pm to 9 pm, during the dry season which is late April through to late October. It does get extremely busy, so the crowds might not be for everyone. But the main attraction is the sunset. The view from Mindil Beach is pretty special; The sun looks bigger here as it sets right over the Arafura sea and you get that uninterrupted horizon. It’s one of those sunsets that really stops you in your tracks. Everyone claps when it is over because it is spectacular! There’s a great mix of street food stalls, local arts and crafts, and live music. I even saw people doing camel rides along the beach as the sun was coming down. Something to note – you can’t bring dogs into the market area, unless it’s a certified assistance dog. It’s a bit of a shame if you’re travelling with your pet, but good to know before you go. In July, the sun sets around 6.30 pm, so it’s worth getting there early to find a good spot, and get a good car park. If you’re visiting Darwin, this is a must-do – especially for that sunset.

What a great marketing to visit especially for the food stalls. Incredible food from all the way around the world. Great clothes and nice Nan stores so do yourself a favour and get down and check it out and I recommend going early as the queues get so long once the sun starts to set.

Excellent market with food of all kinds and nationalitys represented. Loads of stalls selling things like jewelry,t-shirts,sandals,skin creams, crocodile products ,natural insect repellent and various local made products. Entertainment from whip cracking,fire twirling and indigenous music and dance. Well worth a visit

Obviously a must go while in darwin, at this particular time I believe it was on each Thursday and Sunday, I went on the Thursday. The range of food and drinks available was remarkable! I had the burgers from the aussie burgers truck,I had the crocodile and buffalo which were so good!!! I didn't check out the non food part of the market so can't comment on that. The sunset was stunning, be aware it does get full of people so perhaps good to get a spot early. Was a great place to relax after a day of touring, there was a small taxi rank available there too which was a bonus.

Booked ahead and got a table on the beach. The sunset was spectacular. The live entertainment was very good. Choice of drinks was good. Food was good quality pub level. Would have liked a few lighter options. Service was friendly.

The atmosphere by the beach is fantastic, especially if you come just before sunset. Food was okay (this does not mean it is bad). Definitely more of casual outing.

Amazing food, cocktails, sunset and atmosphere. Menu has so many gluten and dairy free, vegan options too 😋

Hats off to Chef Rohan. He is the best and he makes the finest Nepali cuisine for buffet in town, and nobody can compete. Every single dish was absolutely delicious; whatever you taste here, it’s the best, no doubt about it. The hospitality was outstanding too. We never had to call anyone for top-ups or other service, the staff came by themselves, attentive and caring throughout. The service was smooth, and all of our guests were just as impressed, constantly complimenting the food. From start to finish, it was a perfect dining experience. Shoutout to the Chef and the team. Highly recommend!!! Full five stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have just returned to Darwin for a holiday 32yrs after leaving as a teen. This place holds great memories for me and to be able to come back with my hubby was lovely. Such a lovely place to sit and admire the view.

Amazing food and venue, tipped up for lunch and watched the storm roll in. Huge portions sizes and delicious meals.

View amazing, service friendly. Value less than great though-$20 cerviche gave what felt like about 20 g of fish (7cm x5cm bowl total with filler veg) and a whole lot of rice crackers, croc fillet and S&P squid also expensive for the size of serve provided. Tasty enough. I wonder it maybe the larger dishes are better value?

TAKE CASH so that you can buy whatever you want :) Highly recommend- Mary’s laksa. One of the best laksa I had in Australia. Also, very affordable! Yes, the queue is long but it’s quick anyways. This market had a lot of Asian food stalls which I appreciate! :)

Parap Market is one of my favourites in Darwin. It’s open every Saturday from 8 am to 2 pm, all year round; but it’s especially lovely during the dry season. The weather in July is absolutely delicious; cool in the morning with clear skies, which makes it the perfect setting to enjoy a bowl of laksa or something fresh while walking around. There’s a great mix of stalls offering food from all over Southeast Asia, fresh produce, handmade goods, flowers, and local art. My absolute go to is the Popia; the spring rolls here are the best!! I also always get the Vietnamese pork skewers and paw paw salad—so yummy:) The smoothie and juice stalls are beautiful too; perfect for something cool and refreshing when it's starting to warm up. It does get busy, but parking is usually okay if you arrive early or don’t mind walking a little. Dogs aren’t allowed in the market area, which is a shame if you’re bringing your pup along—but good to know ahead of time. I don’t have many photos from my visits here; which says a lot because I usually take heaps—but I’m too busy living my best life eating all the food 😆 Highly recommend checking it out if you're in Darwin. I love it!

《Parap Village Markets》 If you’re visiting Darwin, Northern Territory, make sure to save your Saturday morning for the Parap Village Markets — one of the city’s most beloved weekend destinations. Open only on Saturdays, this vibrant market bursts with life, offering everything from international street food and refreshing tropical drinks to unique handicrafts and local artworks that capture the creative spirit of the Top End. It’s the perfect place to wander, taste, and explore, whether you’re traveling solo, with friends, or spending a relaxed weekend with family. The friendly atmosphere and mix of cultures truly reflect Darwin’s laid-back yet cosmopolitan charm. Among the many tempting food stalls, one that absolutely stands out is HUONG VET MARKET STALL. Their BBQ Pork Banh Mi is, without exaggeration, the best I’ve ever had — perfectly grilled pork, crisp baguette, and a balance of sweet, savory, and fresh flavors that’s simply unforgettable. If you ever find yourself in Darwin, don’t miss the chance to experience this lively market — a true local gem that captures the essence of the Northern Territory. 🌴🥢🥖

Bustling place on a Saturday morning. Tried a laksa from the Purple Ladies - absolutely delicious. And the pork belly straight off the grill was unbelievable - flavourful, juicy and so tender. Definitely worth a visit!

One of the best village markets I've ever been to. What it lacks in size, it makes up in quality. Nice fresh produce, hot food like laksa, satay, banh mi and more. I highly recommend the satay stall and purple lady laksa. There are also juice bars, flower stalls and crafts, as well as plenty of nice cafes nearby.

Love parap market 🤩 I coming for holiday to Darwin and love parap market .. FOODS 😋, FRUITS 😋 I try Chiken and squid satay OMG 😋😋 best Beef chilly curry puff pastry yum … They accept CARD OR CASH so don’t worry Not big market but good for visit and have a taste meals culinary 😋😋

Parap market is terrific for its diverse food stalls. Try the Laos salads, rice balls in a coconut sauce (my personal fave) or sweet pork on a stick. Lots of choices of things on a stick...all good 😋 Beautiful fresh cut flowers & many other stalls to browse. Oh & don't forget to grab an authentic Laksa from Mary's to take home. Fresh breads & pastries, sweet home made desserts..too much to mention. A must go when visiting the Top End 🤠

This is well with a visit as it is very popular with both local fisher people and those wanting to use the extensive path for exercise plus it has picnic tables nearby and we were able to pick up a coffee on our morning walk. It has really lovely views over the surrounding beaches and out to the sea including to Tiwi Island. Apparently it is also a very popular spot for viewing sunset in sunrise.

One of my favourite places in Darwin to have a picnic by the beach, watch the sunset, or go for a walk with friends. The sea breeze is refreshing, and the views along the foreshore are always stunning, especially as the sun dips below the horizon. There are plenty of shaded spots, walking paths, and places to sit and relax, making it perfect for both a quiet moment alone or a lively catch-up with loved ones. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming — a true Darwin gem.

Nightcliff Jetty is a wonderful recreational spot for families in Darwin. It offers stunning sea views, fresh breezes, and plenty of space for walking, fishing, and relaxing together. The atmosphere is peaceful and safe, making it a perfect place for kids to play and families to spend quality time outdoors.

What a fabulous view. Clean and well signed area beautiful rock cliff to watch the ocean. Lots of fishing happening with fish being caught.

Nightcliff Jetty is a top fishing spot. Sabiki rigs work well for live bait, then you can rig them up floating or sinking for bigger fish. I’ve seen plenty of mackerel, trevally, queenfish and even sharks caught here. Always a good chance of action.

Lovely jetty overlooking the cliffs on both sides. Amazing spot for sunrises and sunsets. Seen a few people fishing from the jetty too. There is a coffee van right at the jetty. Great place to grab a coffee and sit on the cliff rocks.

Beautiful area with shade and seating. Jetty was popular with young.

Hidden Gem with Stunning Views We stumbled across Zen Rooftop Bar while walking through Darwin and decided to stop in for a Father’s Day celebration with the family and we’re so glad we did! The rooftop setting is beautiful with amazing views of both the city and the ocean. It really feels like a hidden gem with a relaxed vibe and modern atmosphere. What made it even better was the thoughtful extras complimentary nibbles and canapés (both hot and cold) lollies for the kids and plenty of non alcoholic drinks for those of us not drinking. The staff were welcoming and friendly and everything felt well organised but still casual and easy going. A great spot for families or anyone looking to enjoy Darwin from a different perspective. Highly recommend!

Fantastic place to enjoy a drink and complimentary canapés, definitely recommend booking a table on a Friday night as it was busy but there is plenty of room and tables otherwise. Huge selection of drink and uninterrupted view of the sunset and surrounds. Thanks to Dene, a fantastic bloke and made us feel very welcome... (although did deny fireworks from the roof 😆)

Fabulous roof top bar. Staff were so accommodating and friendly. Food was plentiful and delicious. The view was incredible and even though it was busy it felt so spacious. The pool table and massage chairs were an unexpected and delightful bonus. Thankyou for a wonderful evening.

Just the best place to watch anywhere in Darwin. Territory day sunsets or just watching life below go bye. Such welcoming staff at the rooftop bar and the free food is an absolute bonus and so tasty. Definitely will be coming back again next time we visit for sure.

Amazing 360 degree views of downtown Darwin, with lovely sunsets. Friendly staff and complimentary snacks. Well worth a visit for the views alone!

Great views! Bar tenders were good when your at the bar, no bar seating. I ordered a long Island ice tea after reading there recipe and thought this will be excellent! Well too bad, I dont think they used half of what is listed and they may have used a cheaper brand of alcohol as the pour was from a different container. It was not good. Being a gluten for punishment and wanting to give away $24 for another made by the other bar tender, well got the same result.😔 No one ever came to ask if we would like anything or even talked to us. The self serve food that is supposed to be free and was nearly empty and wasn't refilled while we were there. Wouldn't go back even with a date.

Really good experience and staff! After a delay and some problems with changing the keg the manager was kind enough to offer some complimentary beers for the wait. The vibe is really good with the options of nibbles after you purchase a drink. It gets busy so best to arrive an hour or so before sunset. Will be recommending and definitely be returning 👍

A great experience, a good range of food stalls and an amazing sunset to sit and watch. I visited about 12 years ago and these markets seemed to be lacking craft stalls this time, however was a good local experience. We had ice cream and watched some people perform at the stage area which was lovely. Parking was really easy too

28 Sep 2025 // Back at the market before leaving Darwin tomorrow. We got there around 6 pm and spent about 20 minutes finding a parking spot—definitely come early if you’re driving! The Sunday crowd was much bigger compared to Thursday when we first visited. Tried the pork stick (AUD 6) after a long queue—super fatty, juicy, and very salty.. Also grabbed the garlic butter corn cob (AUD 9), and it was amazing! The vendor asked if we wanted salt, I said no, and it was still delicious. Highly recommend eating the corn while it’s hot! 25 Sep 2025 // Came to the market around 4+ and it was already crowded. There’s a wide variety of food — from Chinese to Thai, Mexican, Japanese, Korean and more. We settled for a kebab and a bowl of chicken laksa. The kebab was really good at AUD15. The flatbread was crispy, generously filled with chicken, and the mix of ingredients inside made it delicious. The chicken laksa was less impressive. Coming from Singapore, I found it weak in flavor compared to our spicier version. The Darwin version was sweeter, with a strong coconut taste. It had so much chicken that I could hardly find the noodles. For dessert, I tried the churros in the “must-try” Lotus flavor. It didn’t seem freshly made and wasn’t as crispy as expected. Lotus is definitely sweet — I probably clocked my sugar intake for the whole year with that dessert. I also got 10% off for paying cash at the Laska stall. Credit cards are widely accepted but come with a 1.6–1.9% surcharge, so cash is a better option, even though I usually prefer going cashless.

This is a must visit marketplace with really lovely views out to the sea. The markets are incredibly vibrant with lots of music, food stalls of all varieties and lots of knickknacks and artwork to purchase. Just wondering around the market was very nice and I can understand why this is one of the iconic places to visit while in Darwin.

I always visit the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets while I am in Darwin, as it is always a highlight for me:) The markets run every Thursday and Sunday from 4 pm to 9 pm, during the dry season which is late April through to late October. It does get extremely busy, so the crowds might not be for everyone. But the main attraction is the sunset. The view from Mindil Beach is pretty special; The sun looks bigger here as it sets right over the Arafura sea and you get that uninterrupted horizon. It’s one of those sunsets that really stops you in your tracks. Everyone claps when it is over because it is spectacular! There’s a great mix of street food stalls, local arts and crafts, and live music. I even saw people doing camel rides along the beach as the sun was coming down. Something to note – you can’t bring dogs into the market area, unless it’s a certified assistance dog. It’s a bit of a shame if you’re travelling with your pet, but good to know before you go. In July, the sun sets around 6.30 pm, so it’s worth getting there early to find a good spot, and get a good car park. If you’re visiting Darwin, this is a must-do – especially for that sunset.

This is the most vibrant market I've been to in Australia. An abundance of quality food stalls, with cooking smells wafting across the site. Being able to sit on the sand and watch the sun setting over the water, as you enjoy your meal, is an unforgettable experience. Make sure to allow enough time to park, grab some food and get to the beach, so you don't miss the show! For those into arts, crafts, massage and face painting, you'll not be left wanting, either.

The Mindil Beach Markets are a must-visit — and it’s easy to see why they’re one of Darwin’s top attractions. The atmosphere was incredible, set right by the beach with a stunning sunset over the water that truly added to the magic. There’s a huge variety of food stalls offering global cuisines — from American and Southern European to Southeast Asian and classic Aussie — alongside quirky arts and crafts, all run by local vendors. Supporting NT small businesses made the experience even more meaningful. Live music and whip-cracking demonstrations added to the entertainment, and for something a little different, camel rides along the beach are also available. Facilities were thoughtfully laid out, with toilets at both ends, portable ATMs, and plenty of parking (we Ubered there with no trouble at all). Prices were a little above average, but that’s expected in Darwin. All in all, we had an amazing time — it’s absolutely worth planning your visit around a Thursday or Sunday evening to catch this vibrant, beachside market.

A must do experience if you're in Darwin. Relaxed vibe of a top end market in the warmer drier climates of Darwin There are a lot of different food stalls to taste while you're here at Mindil Beach Night Markets. The freshly cut mangoes taste beautiful,

One of the best places in Darwin to watch sunset. Great area for running and dog friendly beach. Highly recommend coming down for Sunset while you're in Darwin 🌴 🌅🤩🫶🏼

We enjoyed a very pleasant walk on the pathway near Casuarina Drive with views out over Beagle Gulf and onto the Tiwi Islands. The beach is very popular and is also quite beautiful with clear waters & a number of outstanding rock features including Cheryl‘s rock and some rock carving up towards the end. There are a couple of coffee shops on this walk as well.

Best place for a walk, morning or evening. Even in wet season when big storms loom on the horizon this is just one of my favourite outdoor spots in Darwin. I often come here to do some outdoor painting and sketching.

I lived in Nightcliff for 16 years and my family and I spent many days playing on Nightcliff beach. The sunsets are truly magical 💛🧡 I don't recommend swimming as there are crocodiles around, but when the tide goes out there's lots of little pools of shallow water the kids can splash in. It's a great place for a family picnic or a romantic stroll on the beach. There's usually food vans along the Nighcliff foreshore most days making it a great place to grab a meal and watch the sunset. Plenty of picnic tables and electric BBQs available and public toilets at various locations along the foreshore.

This beach is truly a hidden gem! It offers another great spot to spend your evening, whether you want to watch a breathtaking sunset, have a delightful picnic, or engage in some invigorating exercise. The serene beauty of this place, combined with its peaceful ambiance, creates a perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor activities. The wide shoreline provides ample space for a leisurely stroll or even a game of beach volleyball. The sunset views here are simply mesmerizing, casting a warm and enchanting glow over the horizon. Whether you're a nature enthusiast or simply looking for a tranquil escape, this beach has something to offer everyone. Don't miss the chance to experience its charm!

I've thoroughly enjoyed swimming and spending time on this beach. Nightcliff is a great place to stay.

I'm loving the view and the vibes here. It seems so peaceful here. 🌬😌🤍🌿

An awesome evening, the hosts were amazing and friendly, the service impeccable, the food was of a very high standard. Lovely cool evening finishing with a light show from Mother Nature. Thank you for a wonderful dinner cruise, I highly recommend.

My husband and I had a wonderful sunset cruise experience with Murno and his fantastic team on Cape Adieu. This cruise exceeded our expectations - lovely sunset, friendly and attentive crew, a personalised approach with our table and the best 4 course meal we've enjoyed in ages with fresh seafood and tender steak included. We highly recommend this cruise to anyone wanting that something special from the Darwin Harbour.

Pinch yourself experience on the harbour in Darwin. Beautiful sunset, great food & A+ service. This is a must for anyone visiting Darwin. Munro, Grace & the team are fantastic hosts!

Unforgettable experience for the whole family! We all thoroughly enjoyed the Cape Adieu Sunset Dinner Cruise—it was the perfect way to take in Darwin’s iconic sunset. The atmosphere was relaxed, the food was delicious, and the views were absolutely stunning. A special shout-out to Pip and Gracie who were our graciousn hosts for the evening—so friendly and attentive! Even showed my daughter around the boat! Highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting Darwin. Thank you Munro and Grace

We really enjoyed our sunset dinner cruise with Cape Adieu. All the staff were really lovely and the 3 course meal was excellent. Loved the fresh seafood entree! It was beautiful on the harbour in the evening. Another great touch was Munro the owner coming and chatting with the guests. Highly recommend 😀.

The cruise was fantastic would highly recommend it. The staff were amazing and so friendly. Food and service were delicious 😋. The boat great and the run down b4 and during the cruise was very knowledgeable. Would do it again.

Everything about this cruise was perfect. Spectacular views. 5 star 4 course meal - best we had on our entire holiday. Amazing staff- friendly, professional, knowledgeable. We had a table for 2 upstairs- fantastic!

Had a wonderful stay at our Zen apartment in Darwin. Great location, close to cafes, restaurants and the main entertainment area ( not too close…). The apartment was spacious, clean, and terrific indoor and outdoor spaces. Really well supported by the hosts. Would stay there again, no worries!

Our accommodation was amazing. The apartment was spacious and clean. The view was beautiful especially at night when watching the sunset. The accommodation location was on the outskirts of the town city and only a 5 min drive away. We look forward to returning in the near future.

We stayed in this beautiful apartment for a week. Great location very close to CBD. Has great views and very spacious.The apartment is absolutely gorgeous, has everything you need. Both rooms boosting own bathrooms. Beds are super comfy. We enjoyed having a bbq on veranda and the confidence of a washing machine and dryer. Highly recommend this apartment

Thank you for the use of your lovely accommodation for our stay in Darwin. Your apartment is equipped with everything that you could need & is in a great location. I highly recommend your apartment for its spaciousness and cleanliness. With 5 adults there was more than ample room. We hope to return for another Darwin visit. Many thanks, Kerry & Cameron

Fantastic accommodation for a family. Clean, quiet and well maintained. Great location to access the delights of Darwin City and the foreshore. Accessible for those with mobility challenges. Great communication from the hosts.

Location is great, view was amazing, great sized balcony for hanging washing and we had our meals out there watching the sunset. The room was nice and tidy and practical, few small things like showers weren’t very hot, always had tap on full hot and was ok but not as hot as we like and the sink in bathroom didn’t drain very well in master but other than that the room was good. I probably wouldn’t book a hotel again through this third party company though as you don’t get the perks of a hotel like room service for food, linen changes, extra key for lift if there’s more than one of you, breakfast included etc so that was inconvenient.

A simply gorgeous apartment. Everything we needed was there in the apartment. We were extremely happy with it. Anywhere we wanted to go was $10 in an Uber. Would definitely rent this apartment again when going back to Darwin. Congratulations Zen !!!

This is truly the gem in the NT's crown. An historical building right in the heart of the city. Usually it is closed to the public, so this visit was very special. Absolutely beautiful and I wished it was open to the public more often and I'm grateful I got to see it.

Best residential view in Darwin, and a heavy yet not over the top tropical vibe -- it's good to be the Administrator (equivalent of Governor General only without the state sovereignty and a few other protocol changes).

Great visit to NT Government House, lovely chat with the Adminstrator Professor Hugh Heggie, an absolute gentleman. My ex Navy colleagues and I had a special time.

It might be Free but it was not open to public unless special day once a year. Even though google maps says it is open.

This was a real bonus, after we left the WW2 tunnels and went discovering, to find that last Friday & Saturday, it was Open to the Public (only 2 days each year). We had a stroll through the house, which is beautiful, then a stroll around the stunning gardens with ocean views. Followed this with live music and afternoon tea supplied by a local Boy Scout group. We even managed to meet The Administrator (Governor) and his partner. A lovely surprise.

Didn't get in but it's a beautiful building and love the history too.

Well worth a visit on open day.

A stunning spot for sunset, and close to restaurants for a spot to eat.

One of many great locations in Darwin for weather photography or just to chill out with the waves and sea breeze. Also a popular place for a walk on the beach with your furry little friends. Highly recommend a visit with sunsets being popular time of day. 😎

Vesteys Beach is an excellent Sunset photo op, perfect place to eat some dinner while watching the sun go down, in your car or on the beach. Also in my top 5 for some late evening storm activity. Remember bug spray if spending time on the beach at dusk, life saver.

A popular dog walking area with good car parking.

Great night time cruising location ;) . Also, can sometimes spot sea turtles and Dugong coming to the surface around Sunrise when the water is smooth as glass.

Nice quiet beach ⛱️

Very nice

Great for views of the sunset and any time of the day.

Nice 👍

Nice scenic spot, walk up from Mindil beach.

Nice walking route to feel the fresh air from the sea

Nice place to view the area.

Did the gaze and graze and loved it! Pricier but still reasonable for the drinks, crew were lovely and of course the sunset was spectacular. 2 of us went and each got the different platter. It was a great mix for us to share for a light dinner!

Food was first rate service onboard was also great would highly recommend the dinner cruise

Good food

It's a nice coastal area. You can follow the bike path from here all the way out to East Point, there you can check out the Monsoon Forest walking trail or head further and check out the WW II bunkers.

Perfect spot for a evening walk
