Board the Cape Adieu at Stokes Hill Wharf. Four-course dinner, sundowner drinks, or your own special occasion on the harbour.
Cape Adieu runs Darwin's sunset cruises from Stokes Hill Wharf — four-course dinner cruises, two-hour sundowners, and private charters for whatever you're celebrating. Cruises run through the dry season, April to October, with the harbour turning gold off the back deck. Pick the evening that suits you.
Cape Adieu runs a single boat on the harbour, and she turns her hand to all of it — a four-course dinner with the tablecloths out, a casual sundowner with a drink in hand, or the whole vessel booked out for a birthday or a work do. The boat, the wharf and the west-facing sunset stay the same. What changes is the evening.
Whichever you pick, you board at Dock 3, Stokes Hill Wharf, the licensed bar's open the whole way, and Grace and the crew run the night so you don't have to lift a finger. The menu, the pace and the size of the group are what set the four cruises apart — here's how they compare.
Four ways to spend an evening on the water. Find the one that fits your group, then tap through for the full details.
Best for a proper night out. Four chef-prepared courses over three hours, built around fresh local produce, with the licensed bar on board.

If you want the full evening, the Signature Dinner Cruise gives you four chef-prepared courses as the sun goes down. If you're after a lighter night — just drinks and the sunset — the Sundowner is the one. For your own private night on the water, look at Special Occasions or Corporate Events.
Cruises run through the Dry season, April to October, boarding at 5pm and back at the wharf by 8pm. Outside those months, get in touch about private charters.
