Aquascene

Aquascene is where hundreds of fish, such as milkfish, bream, catfish and many other species come to shore at high tide to be fed by hand in a skirmish of fins and tails. The ritual began in the late 1950s when local residents would throw scraps of food to a few mullet. Before too long, hundreds of fish were turning up at high tide every day to be fed. This popular attraction gives visitors an introduction to the marine life living off the Darwin coast.
