DARWIN DRIVING TOUR NT 🇦🇺 OCT 2024 FRIDAY EVENING DRIVE THROUGH THE CITY & WATERFRONT WITH SOME RAIN

A relaxing drive through Darwin City CBD on a Friday evening with some rain and lightning. We drive through the Darwin City CBD around Mitchell Street and Smith Street. We drive past the Waterfront Precinct and onto Stokes Hill Wharf where we park to enjoy the rain and the dark grey clouds moving into the city. We can see the lightning in the distance. We then continue past the Deckchair Cinema and onto the Esplanade where we pass a protest march. The drive ends at the Darwin Casino. There is nothing like a drive in Darwin City during the build-up just before the wet season kicks in! Dark grey sky on one side and beautiful purple and orange on the other side! Love it!
Date: Friday 25 October 2024 Starting Time: 6:45pm

Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory, Australia. With a population of 139,902 at the 2021 census, the city contains most of the sparsely populated Northern Territory's residents. It is the smallest, wettest, and most northerly of the Australian capital cities and serves as the Top End's regional centre.
Darwin's proximity to Southeast Asia makes it a key link between Australia and countries such as Indonesia and East Timor. The Stuart Highway begins in Darwin and extends southerly across central Australia through Tennant Creek and Alice Springs, concluding in Port Augusta, South Australia. The city is built upon a low bluff overlooking Darwin Harbour. Darwin's suburbs begin at Lee Point in the north and stretch to Berrimah in the east. The Stuart Highway extends to Darwin's eastern satellite city of Palmerston and its suburbs.
The Darwin region, like much of the Top End, has a tropical climate, with a wet and dry season. A period known locally as "the build up" leading up to Darwin's wet season sees temperature and humidity increase. Darwin's wet season typically arrives in late November to early December and brings with it heavy monsoonal downpours, spectacular lightning displays, and increased cyclone activity. During the dry season, the city has clear skies and mild sea breezes from the harbour.
The Larrakia people are the traditional owners of the Darwin area and Aboriginal people are a significant proportion of the population. On 9 September 1839, HMS Beagle sailed into Darwin Harbour during its survey of the area. John Clements Wickham named the region "Port Darwin" in honour of their former shipmate Charles Darwin, who had sailed with them on the ship's previous voyage. The settlement there became the town of Palmerston in 1869, but was renamed Darwin in 1911. The city has been almost entirely rebuilt four times, following devastation caused by a cyclone in 1897, another one in 1937, Japanese air raids during World War II, and Cyclone Tracy in 1974.

Stokes Hill Wharf is the main wharf for the city of Darwin in the Northern Territory of Australia and is named after Stokes Hill, adjacent. The hill itself was named in 1839 by the commander of HMS Beagle, after its previous commander, Captain Pringle Stokes.

The Darwin Waterfront Precinct is a tourist area in the Northern Territory of Australia in Darwin City. Restaurants, bars, a wave pool and a man-made beach are available for local community and tourists. It is located five minutes’ walk from the Darwin Central Business District (CBD).

Get ready for an unforgettable cinematic experience under the stars at Deckchair Cinema. Nestled on the edge of Darwin Harbour, our outdoor setting boasts panoramic sunset views over the harbour, framed by a lush tropical garden and remnant rainforest.
