The Daly River is a river in the Northern Territory of Australia. It is part of the Daly Catchment.
The Daly River flows 354 kilometres from the confluence of the Flora River and Katherine River to its mouth on the Timor Sea. It is one the few major rivers in the Northern Territory that flows all year round. Sustained by groundwater, its dry-season flows are five time larger than any other river in the territory.
It is home to more than 90 species of fish. It is best known for its large barramundi making it a popular waterway for recreational fishing. The floodwater carries baitfish which attracts predatory barramundi. The river is also home to the critically endangered largetooth sawfish. It also has eight different turtle species, includes the endangered pig-nosed turtle, more than any other Australian river.[
