Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Fondly known to locals as "Newie", Newcastle, Australia is a lovely port city that can be reached by driving for two hours along the legendary Pacific Highway. The downtown streets are filled with artisan shops and wonderful restaurants, but the city is also known for its natural beauty. If you want to swim, surf, or sunbathe, no fewer than eight beaches can be found around the city center. Many of these beaches are connected by a beautiful three-mile walking trail known as Bathers Way, which also leads to the historic Fort Scratchley and a historic sea bath known as the Bogey Hole. Map
