What you can expect

Immerse yourself in the history, habitat and modern-day intrigue of Darwin, a tropical city nestled at the top of Australia. Enjoy a 1-hour interactive cruise through the largest natural harbor in the Southern Hemisphere and be stimulated by contemporary stories as well as those from times gone by.

Board your vessel at Stokes Hill Wharf, one of Darwin's iconic historical locations, and enjoy vistas of Darwin's Waterfront Precinct from Kitchener Bay. Allow your local crew to use the tide, the wind and the season to select a route to maximize your Darwin Harbour experience.

Cruise past Fisherman's Wharf into a mangrove waterway to visit a crocodile trap or head around the point and visit a tidally exposed sandbar to feel the sand between your toes. Explore this intriguing environment, home to a wonderful pristine eco-system and enjoy a refreshment from the licensed bar on board. While you're out and about you will hear stories of WW2, Cyclone Tracy, Darwin's Naval history and the buildings of the Darwin City Seascape. Return to Stokes Hill Wharf 1 hour later.
