Darwin Tours, Day Trips & Activities - Skydive Australia

<p>The best time of year to visit Darwin is during the dry season, which generally runs from May to October.&nbsp;</p>

<p>This season is a popular time for various local festivals and events, and the weather is generally warm and sunny with low humidity and minimal rainfall. This makes it the ideal time for visitors looking to enjoy the city life and explore the Top End&rsquo;s many outdoor activities.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Despite what you may have heard, there are a few beaches in Darwin that you can swim at. However, visitors should be aware that saltwater crocodiles and box jellyfish are both known to frequent these waters at certain times during the year. As such, it&rsquo;s vital that you always read any relevant safety signs, swim between the red and yellow flags, and listen to any directions from lifeguards patrolling the area.&nbsp;</p>

<p>If you&rsquo;re keen for a swim but less keen on the creatures you may be sharing your space with, we totally get it, and there is a solution! Darwin&rsquo;s Recreation Lagoon is a man-made beach with a specially designed seawall made to keep out any unwanted sea creatures, including salties and stingers. This beach is patrolled by lifeguards and has all the amenities you might need for a pleasant day by the sea, making it popular with tourists and locals alike.</p>

<p>It depends! It&rsquo;s not super necessary to have a car when visiting Darwin City, as the centre is pretty compact and walkable, with a number of public transport options available. However, if you plan to explore places beyond the city limits, such as Litchfield and Kakadu, having a car can greatly enhance your experience.&nbsp;</p>

<p>If you&rsquo;re considering getting a car for your trip to Darwin, Backpacker Deals can help. Check out our <a href="https://www.backpackerdeals.com/cars-rental"><b>car hire service</b></a>&nbsp;page for more information and allow our team to help you plan your next Darwin adventure with ease.&nbsp;</p>

<p>If you&rsquo;re looking to stick to the city, three days should be just the right amount of time to explore all the highlights. However, with so many other things to do around Darwin, we&rsquo;d recommend staying at least a week so you can explore all the other attractions in Australia&rsquo;s Top End!</p>
