Berry Springs Nature Park

Berry Creek starts from a number of springs, forms a small creek, then reaches Darwin Harbour through a mangrove lined estuary.

During WWII, Berry Springs was part of a Rest and Recreation Camp set up by the armed forces for the 100,000 personnel based in the area.

A number of huts and weir were built at Berry Springs during this time. You can still see the remains around the main pool.

The Park also provides a refreshing swimming spot. If you swim with goggles, you can see many small native fish and other aquatic life that live in the clear pools. The pools may be closed at between November and April due to high water levels.

There are many shady picnic areas with tables and barbecues, and walking tracks which take you through 2 Northern Territory habitats.
