Campervan Hire Darwin
Driving Directions
It should come as no surprise to visitors when it comes to Darwin being Asian, even if it is Australian. It is much closer to Jakarta and much nearer to Singapore.
This small cosmopolitan city offers a variety of attraction to suit every taste. And driving is the best way to see Darwin, as many of the sights and destinations are spread out. Traffic and parking with your Campervan Rental Australia is not a worry.
With miles and miles of unpolluted beaches like the Mindil Beach, Australia, you can enjoy swimming in the sea, but be cautious during October - May though, the Box jellyfish are not that friendly.
Fishing and even blue water fishing can be an alternate activity, especially for the locals where they flock to catch a prized barramundi. Its vibrant arts scene includes the Darwin Festival and “Bass in the Grass” concert with in and outdoor live music and acts. The region has extensive gardens and parks for visitors’ recreation and information. There are still more things to do in Darwin, other than the ones I have mentioned.
Make this an unforgettable Darwin experience with your Australia Motorhome!
Doctors Gully Fish Feeding – Treat yourself to an unforgettable experience and visit Aquascene at Doctors Gully. You feed the fish by hand and they’re not so little. Luckily, they don’t bite hard! Word gets around fast if you have a handful of feed. The attraction has been featured in most magazines and television programs. Fish like milkfish, catfish, mullet, bream and barramundi can be seen close and touched, too, as they compete with each other for food. Other species such as rays, cod and diamond fish can be seen if you watch closely. This unique attraction introduces you to several marine species. Feeding is dependent on the high tide, so call for the schedule which varies per month.
