There are some great locations for one day Fishing Escapes that are easily accessible from Darwin.
Even if you only have a day or two to spare, you can still experience the thrill of Barramundi fishing. Within a half hour or so boat ride from Darwin City, there are many scenic fishing locations, and all offer great opportunities for catching the iconic Barramundi. Darwin Harbour is roughly 3 times larger than Sydney Harbour and we can get quite remote.
On our Darwin Fishing Escapes you will also get to see Australian and migratory bird life and possibly saltwater crocodiles.
