A frontier city at the edge of genuine crocodile country, a market on the harbour that turns every Thursday and Sunday sunset into a festival, and a jumping-off point for Kakadu and Litchfield within a few hours' drive.

The best time to visit Darwin is May–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 31°C (87°F).
