About Darwin
The capital of the Northern Territory, Darwin is a former frontier outpost. It is also known as the Australian gateway to Asia.
The city and it’s occupants are relaxed and laid-back but that doesn’t mean there aren’t great opportunities for those living in or travelling to Darwin. Darwin is also known for it’s diverse culture, largely attributed to being closer to the Indonesian capital of Jakarta than it is to Canberra!
You’ll find a range of industries abundant in Darwin including mining, offshore oil and gas production, pastoralism, tourism and tropical horticulture.
