Cullen Bay Marina - It's around a 30 minute walk
down a hill to the marina. So we suggets a cab if you aren't into
walking. Whatever you do you must go there for a look or a meal.
It is a beautiful marina. Starting from Mitchell Street the walk
is about the same 45mins on a slow stroll.
After the hustle and bussle of the entertainment
district in the CBD about 1klm on it broadens out to units and
apratments on either side of the road as shown in the pictures
on the left and right here.
At the end of Mitchell Street turn right and 300
meters into Lambell Terrace along you see the roundabout or if
your coming from Smith Street it's on the same road.
Looking at the round about from Smith Street the
Sky City Resort is directly down the hill 500 meters in front
of you and next to that is Mindel Beach.
The signage at the roundabout is very good and hard
to get lost. Veering left at 11o'clock on the dial is the road
down to Cullen Bay Marina.
Cullen Bay Marina has around 100 craft, boats and
yachts in it's berths at any one time.
These can be the large tourist ferries to fishing
charter boats, to visiting yachties travelling the world to our
own yachties.
Cullen Bay Marina - The road down to the Marina
is called Marina Boularvard Cullen Bay.
A gradual incline walk from the Marina to the Smith
Street Mall took us around 45 min at a slow stroll. To drive it
took us 2 minutes to the top of the hill to the first roundabout
pictured here on the left.
Cullen Bay Marina in Darwin - commercial strip resembles
more of Nasau in the Bahamas.
Built actually around the time I first came to Darwin
in 1988 it has the lifestyle any southerner would sell up for.
Some of Darwin's most recognized and fequented cafes and restaurants
are situated here such as Yots, The Boatshed and Buzz Cafe.
The road down is lined with Residental and Holiday
apartments on the left and a rock bank about 10m high on the right.
There are tourist apartments on the way down to
the Cullen Bay Marina such as Cullen Bay Serviced Apartments and
Marina View Serviced Apartments.
The ferry to Mandorah and the floating jetty.
Cullen Bay Marina has just one road in the commercial
centre and it is mainly lined with cafes and restaurants.
