Darwin: Shopping
In Darwin’s city centre, the Smith Street Mall has a range of specialty shops linked by arcades to surrounding streets. There are numerous Aboriginal art galleries, unique jewellery stores featuring Territory gems, Australian gold and beautiful saltwater pearls, high-end fashion boutiques and trinket shops to be explored.
Markets
Darwin has a variety of weekend markets – each with its own specialties. Thanks to the multicultural population of the city, you’ll find more exotic fare on offer at the local markets and restaurants than you will else where in Australia.
As well as the Mindil Markets, a Saturday morning laksa and coffee at the Parap Market is a ritual for locals. Treat yourself to organic vegetables at Coolalinga Market. Sunday mornings lend themselves to fresh-picked tropical fruits and Asian vegetables at Rapid Creek Market, or hand-made clothing at Nightcliff Market
