Darwin by what you need

Each page lists only the toilets with that feature, nearest the centre first.

Darwin suburbs with their own toilet page

Ordered by how many listings each holds. Every suburb page has the full list for its area with opening hours, accessibility and directions.

Darwin's public toilets: what the data shows

The National Public Toilet Map records 109 public toilets within 20 km of Darwin City, spread across 45 suburbs and localities. Darwin City (13), Palmerston City (8) and The Gardens (8) hold the most. 19 are within 2 km of the centre, including City Library, Civic Park and Darwin Terminus.

43 of the 109 (39%) are recorded as open 24 hours, among them Austin Lane, Darwin Waterfront Changing Places and Cenotaph. A recorded "24 hours" is the council's weekly pattern, not a live status, so treat it as likely rather than certain late at night.

71 (65%) are recorded as wheelchair accessible and 30 have a baby change table. 1 accessible toilet is locked and need an MLAK key, and 2 are Changing Places facilities with a hoist and adult change table.

Most sit in parks and reserves (29), service stations (21) and sporting grounds (17). 108 are recorded as free; 1 records a charge.

Common questions

How many public toilets are there in Darwin?
109 public toilets are recorded on the National Public Toilet Map within 20 km of Darwin City, across 45 suburbs and localities. Only facilities on the national map are counted, so a café or shopping-centre toilet that was never listed is not included.
Are there 24-hour public toilets in Darwin City?
Yes — 8 toilets within 2 km of the centre are recorded as open 24 hours, including Civic Park, Austin Lane and Darwin Waterfront Changing Places. Across the whole city 43 are recorded as 24-hour. "24 hours" is the council's recorded pattern, not a live status.
Where are the wheelchair-accessible toilets in Darwin?
71 of the 109 listings (65%) are recorded as wheelchair accessible, and 1 of those is locked with an MLAK key. The accessible filter on this page lists them nearest the centre first, and each suburb page has its own accessible list.
Do public toilets in Darwin cost money?
Rarely. 108 of the 109 listings are recorded as free, and 1 records a charge — usually a coin-operated automated toilet.
Which Darwin suburbs have the most public toilets?
Darwin City (13), Palmerston City (8), The Gardens (8), Nightcliff (7) and Casuarina (6). Counts are by the suburb each listing is filed under, so a large park precinct can put one suburb well ahead of its neighbours.
Are there public showers in Darwin?
12 listings within 20 km record a shower, mostly at beaches, pools and camping grounds. The data says only that a shower exists — not whether it is hot, free or coin-operated — so check the listing notes and the free showers guide.

Where this data comes from

Data from the National Public Toilet Map, Australian Government Department of Health, released 28 January 2025 and imported 27 May 2025; amenity details such as dump points, sharps disposal, ambulant cubicles and adult change tables were refreshed from the 1 August 2026 release. Licensed CC BY 3.0 AU. The dataset has no per-facility verification date — if a listing is wrong, use the report button on it. See our data sources for more.
