About the area
Port Stephens, located in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, is a stunning coastal destination that offers a diverse array of natural attractions and leisure activities, making it a perfect getaway for travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation.
The area is renowned for its beautiful bays, pristine beaches, and clear waters, which are ideal for swimming, surfing, and snorkeling. One of the most popular spots is Nelson Bay, a charming town with a marina that serves as a hub for water activities such as dolphin and whale watching cruises. The nearby Tomaree Head Summit Walk is a must-do for visitors, providing panoramic views of the coastline and offshore islands from the top.
Port Stephens is also famous for its resident bottlenose dolphins, with the region being home to one of the largest populations in Australia. Dolphin-watching tours are a popular way to get up close and personal with these playful creatures. For those looking to encounter marine life beneath the waves, the Fly Point-Halifax Park Aquatic Reserve offers excellent opportunities for diving and snorkeling among colorful fish and corals.
The area's sand dunes are another natural wonder not to be missed. The Stockton Bight Sand Dunes, part of the Worimi Conservation Lands, are the largest moving coastal dunes in the Southern Hemisphere. Adventure seekers can explore the dunes by quad bike, camel ride, or sandboarding, adding an exhilarating dimension to their visit.
For a more laid-back experience, Port Stephens' wineries and craft breweries provide a taste of the local flavors, while fresh seafood can be savored at waterfront restaurants. The region's produce is showcased at various markets, where visitors can sample and purchase locally made goods.
Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of parks and reserves, such as the Tomaree National Park and Myall Lakes National Park, which offer bushwalking trails, camping spots, and opportunities to spot koalas and other native wildlife in their natural habitat.
Port Stephens also caters to families, with attractions like the Oakvale Wildlife Park, where children can interact with Australian animals, and the Toboggan Hill Park, offering fun rides and activities.
