Information

Fannie Bay was named by George Goyder after Fanny Carandini, an opera singer. Both the bay of water here, and the adjacent suburb use this name. There is a shared bike/walk path all along the foreshore here that is superb in the late afternoon to enjoy the Darwin sunset. The bay of water is accessible from a beachfront but be wary of salt water crocodiles however the locals do use the water way for jet skiing, sailing, windsurfing. The Darwin Sailing Club looks out into Fannie Bay and each year the sandbar party takes place here.
