Drinking Out the Wet


The thing about the Darwin Wet is that it's just so damned hot. Plus it rains. A lot. The best thing to do is to grab a mate or two, a chess board or some cards and beeline for the nearest bar.

Squires Tavern
Darwin
There's plenty of dark nooks and crannies to settle yourself into in Squires. Plus the beer's cheap and flows with abandon.

Buzz
Larrakeyah
If you've got a bit of cash to spare, there's nothing better than watching the rain bucketing down over Cullen Bay while aimlessly quaffing mango daiquiris. Oh, unless it's ordering a platter of oysters to go with them.

Ducks Nuts Bar & Grill
Darwin
The air-conditioning is blissfully powerful in the main saloon bar. If you're there on a Saturday arvo, settle in for one of the live jazz and blues sessions.
