his is the second “installment” to my guides to photographic locations around Darwin for landscape and seascape shots.

You can see the first part here - part 1 is all about places around the Nightcliff Foreshore area. Nightcliff is around 15 minute drive from the Darwin CBD, and about 7-8 minute drive from East Point Reserve.

East Point Reserve is a nature reserve run by Darwin City Council. It’s only around a five minute drive from the Darwin CBD and it’s possible also to ride a bike from the city, if you’re visiting and don’t have access to a car.

You can find out more information about East Point Reserve here.

I love photography (duh), and I love sharing information, experiences and images with other people.

Over the years, lots of other photographers have found my previous blog “Darwin Seascape Guide - where to go and when” - I’ve received messages, people have told me in person at my various selling pop up locations, and sometimes I’ve even seen other photographers out at location at the same time I’ve been there, all because they found my little ol’ blog post from 2014!!

It makes me happy that I’ve helped other photographers find the locations to get their own great shots! Darwin is not an area typically known for it’s great seascape photography - and I think it takes a bit of training and thinking outside of the box, to get beautiful seascape images from our area. Pick the wrong locations at the wrong tides and the beaches are ugly looking mud! Hopefully these blog posts will give some ideas on what you can shoot in the area but also give you the exact directions to find the same locations.
