Darwin, Hunter river, Kuri bay, Broome

Darwin is a small yet cosmopolitan city on the Timor Sea, a branch of the Indian Ocean, in north-central Australia. Darwin has a relaxed lifestyle and unique multiculturalism. It’s an excellent base to explore the natural attractions of Australia's Kakadu and Nitmiluk National Parks. It’s worth visiting the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory where the great Aboriginal art is on display.

The Hunter River was discovered by European explorers in the 1790s. In June 1796 fishermen sheltering from bad weather discovered coal there, and the river was initially called Coal River. In 1797 it was formally named the Hunter, after Captain John Hunter who was Governor of the British colony in New South Wales at that time. The Hunter River rises on the western slopes of Mount Royal Range, part of the Liverpool Range, within Barrington Tops National Park, east of Murrurundi, and flows generally northwest and then southwest before being imponded by Lake Glenbawn; then flowing southwest and then east southeast before reaching its mouth of the Tasman Sea, in Newcastle between Nobbys Head and Stockton. The river is joined by ten tributaries upstream of Lake Glenbawn; and a further thirty-one tributaries downstream of the reservoir
