Mataranka Thermal Pool and Rainbow Springs
It's 4 hours from Darwin on Stuart Highway (3 Hours from Katherine). It wasn't hot when we went there, just warm. But it's still beautiful and really nice swim. We went during the wet season (December) so it was not crowded. I assume it will be crowded during the dry season - it is also recommended to go during the dry season as sometimes it can be closed during the wet season depending on water levels (to avoid alligators from swimming into the pools).

Great spot to chill or swim in the warm thermal pool, It's kinda refreshing , also the walking trail on the site.

The Mataranka Thermal Pool is a must visit place on the way when youre around Mataranka.It's a fantastic place to swim. The water is crystal clear and the temperature is around 32 degrees all year. Its varying depths make it good for people of all ages, bring some noodles or something for the children.It was personally my favourite place to swim whilst in the Northern Territory.

Called in on the way from Daly Waters Pub to Darwin. Hot day (35° at 9am) so it was great first a quick dip before continuing on. Beautiful area & peacocks.Just watch where you walk, the millions of bats create their own sort of 'rainfall'

Beautiful springs however I wouldn’t suggest going on a weekend or definitely not school holidays because it gets so packed. It’s right next to a caravan park so it’s always busy. I didn’t bother swimming as it was so crowded. I prefer Bitter springs. This spring is more man made having the sides with proper stone walls.Rainbow springs was cute though seeing the water flow.

Lovely, bring floating devices as it’s fairly deep, it’s a cold walk back during the dry season.

The pool is absolutely amazing. Such clear water and a nice warm temperature (but not too warm!). The tropical surroundings are beautiful and the whole setting is peaceful and restful. 100% recommend and would visit again!
