Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Took a drive to the jetty and parked up. The jetty was OK. Not much to see really. The area around was nice and we had a pleasant walk and then sat down to watch the sunset. Sunset watching in Darwin is a popular pastime. It was a busy place

Great spot to take in the NT Sunsets any time of year. Most evenings there are food trucks from Fish & Chips to Pizza to Baked Potatoes. Different nights different food vans

Beautiful part of Darwin with the lawn area very popular and having a few food vans there was very welcome. The jetty itself is good and a great place to fish t the right tide. Caught a couple of small ones which went stright back in but the big ones unfortunatelky kept their distance. Planks on jetty are unevenly spaced in some places but otherwise, a b=nice place to spend a few hours, either fishing or having a snack and a cuppa

Absolutely loved this beach and jetty. What a beautiful part of Darwin. We wandered along the shoreline and walked out along jetty. The beach is lovely and there was a little portable coffee shop near jetty so we stopped and got a coffee and sat in the park area just watching the sights. There are a couple of nice restaurants along the waterfront. Just a really nice spot to visit.

Pick up some take away fish and chips (our favourite is Finnigans at Night Cliffe ) and head down in time to secure a picnic table from which to watch some of the most amazing sunsets you may have seen.

Every evening you get to see a different sunset, we have been here two months on holiday and no two evenings have been the same!! When the tide comes and wind picks up and there has been rain the thunder of waves hitting the shore line, viewd from the jetty is magnificent .

Nightcliff Jetty offers excellent views of the Arafura Sea which is perfect for taking photos of the sunset.
We visited through the day after having a swim at Nightcliff Pool. There is a path along the foreshore which leads to the jetty , beach & pool.
Foreshore cafe is located next door which serves a great coffee & also alcohol.
There is amble parking available situated next to Casuarina Drive.

On Saturdays and Sundays you can buy the best iced coffee in Darwin at Jay's coffee van. Then enjoy it sitting on the headland next to the jetty. No matter how hot or humid it is, there is always a wonderful breeze at this spot.

We went on a Saturday morning.Just 2 vans. Few fishing off the jetty. A lot of people around having their morning coffee. Nothing special but worth the visit.

What is the name of the rocks found on the beach in either Nightcliff or Rapid Creek? The ones I have are a creamy and reddy almost layered colour and feel slightly powdery? Thanks
