Actually, they don't.
The direction of motion is caused by the Coriolis effect. This effect is the basis of the Foucault pendulum demonstration and also causes the counterclockwise rotation of cyclones in the northern hemisphere. However, this effect in a basin or toilet is so weak that most of the time the direction of spin of draining water is the sum of other effects.

∙ 12y agoThe words"Way Down Under" is very obvious!! Ain't it mate??When flushed, toilets one side of the equator spin the opposite way from the way they spin on the other side of the equator.
VERY CORRECT!
The truth is that the spin direction is the same in both hemispheres with respect to the Earth. Only the point of reference changes. Spin a top on a glass table top. Look at it from above the table and then from below. Same thing.
