What to see in Darwin

Darwin Attractions

The Tour Tub, an open-air bus, is a good way to tour the city and view its major attractions, which include the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory; the Overland Telegraph Museum; Fannie Bay Gaol; the Botanic Gardens; the Australian Pearling Exhibition; and East Point Military Museum. The Deckchair Cinema is a delight for nighttime entertainment, and animal-lovers will be fascinated by the enormous Crocodylus Park and Zoo, which is home to more than a thousand crocs and numerous other animals.

The city is a good base from which to explore the surrounding national parks, and although Darwin is a charming city, most visitors spend more time exploring the celebrated landscapes just beyond the city. The most famous of these is the Kakadu National Park, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Other very popular daytrips from Darwin include visits to Katherine Gorge, Litchfield National Park, and the Corroboree Billabong.
