East Point is a northern suburb of the city of Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia.

East Point, Lee Point and Point Charles all appear on Goyder’s original plan of Port Darwin in 1869. This point, the easterly extremity of the entrance to Darwin Harbour has been used for a variety of purposes. It was used during the War (1942-46), a post war golf course and currently a recreation reserve.
