Ideas for a truly Romantic Weekend...

Sometimes it is difficult to come up with something new for the anniversary; or maybe you need help with an idea for a more exclusive weekend for two. The Top End can be the most romantic place on earth… and it doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg, either.

She's Gorgeous

Plan an anniversary like no other with a special weekend in Katherine. Stay at Maud Creek Country Lodge (a quiet property close to the Gorge) and then experience a special dinner cruise along the Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge with Nitmiluk Tours. You can even take a helicopter flight over the Gorge that land at a secluded swimming hole all to yourselves for a few hours.

A sunset she'll enjoy...

Darwin Harbour Sunset Cruises aren't just for the tourists, they are also a great way for locals to get out and have a special evening. Choose from sailing catamarans with nibbles and BYO to the larger vessels that provide a smorgasbord dinner or a la carte.

Lake Bennett Wilderness Resort

Why not leave the kids at home at spend the night in your very own room with a spa bath on the balcony at Lake Bennett Wilderness Resort. The restaurant and bar is open seven days. So there's no need to pack an esky.

Romantic seafood feast at the beach

Mr Barra provides fresh cooked seafood down at Fisherman's Wharf. Why not buy some prawns and oysters and take the other half down to Lee Point Beach for sunset drinks and a seafood dinner on the rug. You can plan ahead and have fresh crusty bread rolls, seafood sauce, lemons and candles pre-packed and ready to go.

Show the stars what real beauty looks like...

Some often say that stargazing can be very romantic, so rather than guess what stars a which, why not leave it to the experts! Night Sky Adventures provide a fantastic evening out at East Point which starts with a glass of bubbly overlooking the sunset. Then take the solar system walk and wonder at the true enormity of the universe. A evening sausage sizzle is also provided.

The birds will love it!

Feather's Sanctuary combines first class bed and breakfast accommodation with the beauty of our native wildlife; it is truly the natural place to stay in Jingili. Each habitat-style room provides great privacy and exclusiveness - perfect for that special night away from home.

Let the tide decide

Dine in a delightful alfresco restaurant created with tables, chairs and umbrellas, providing a unique venue with unsurpassed harbour views around Darwin Harbour. The tide decides on which secret location! Dining has a Japanese influence as lunch is served within a Japanese bento box. For this “beach bento” you get to choose between prawns caught in the seas north of the Tiwi Islands, or roasted chicken, or a healthy vegetarian alternative. Your choice of a chilled beer, wine or soft drink compliments the meal. A romantic way wouldn't you say!
