Darwin is a settlement on East Falkland, lying on Choisel Sound , on the east side of the island's central isthmus.

Darwin was founded in 1859 as the centre for sheep farming in Lafonia, which it remained until 1922. The farm was then transferred to Goose Green, south of Darwin and separated by the Boca Wall of peat, which grew to overshadow Darwin.

Attractions in Darwin include a corral , the Galpon building which was home to nineteenth century gauchos, the Argentine Military Cemetery , and birdlife both in the Sound and the pond.

It is named after Charles Darwin, who carried out a zoological survey of the Falkland Islands on the Beagle.
