Pursuant to subsection 50(1) of the Ports Management Act 2015 (NT), the waters of Port of Darwin will reopen from 1100 on 24 November 2025. Tropical Cyclone Fina no longer poses a risk to the harbour.
Critical services including pilotage, harbour control and vessel traffic services have been restored. Vessel access to services will initially be afforded to critical NT supply chains and fuel security, before reverting to normal operating procedures in accordance with the Darwin Port Access Policy.
All persons and vessels must keep a vigilant lookout for obstacles such as trees and other debris in the water.
There remains one vessel unaccounted for and others that have grounded in areas around the harbour. These will take some time to recover and may pose a hazard to navigation.
