Twice the size of Sydney Harbour and populated by good numbers of Mud Crabs with just a little luck after this mud crabbing tour you could be feasting like a king.
After you have spent some time strategically placing up to 10 crab pots in and around the far reaches of Darwin Harbours mangrove system and if time permits you will bait fish some of the estuary rock bars while you wait for teh crabs to find the pots.
When the time is right you will retrieve the pots, your catch can be tied for you to take live or cleaned ready for cooking.
Mud Crabs for dinner tonight, a true Top End experience.
Mud crabbing in Darwin is best during the dry season, from May to September, although it’s possible year-round. Darwin Harbour and estuaries are popular locations for mud crabbing.
