Nightcliff…

After our first night sleeping in the caravan we headed out to explore the sights of Darwin.
First up we headed to the suburb of Nightcliff. We checked out the local Nightcliff markets there first before heading to the coast.

We went onto the Nightcliff jetty and explored the very cool looking patterned rocks and coastline nearby.

I must confess to looking at the area through landscapers eyes, with the view to potentially coming back here later to shoot during the golden hours :).

It was going to be very interesting being up here in the north west of Australia. In Sydney we are usually shooting sunrises (because we are on the east coast of the country) we mostly have good sunrise seascape locations and few sunrise locations. Over here I’d have an abundance of sunset opportunities instead.

We also checked out nearby East Point. There were a number of former military installations dotted along the coast here.
Next we headed into the city of Darwin for lunch and a wander around. We visited the modern Northern Territory Parliament House. Driving back to the coast we visited the Northern Territory Art Gallery and Museum. Eventually we decided it was too hot to walk around much more so we headed back to where we were staying so we could go for a swim.
