Port Stephens is on the coast, 60 km north of Newcastle. It is an hour's flight from Melbourne and Brisbane and 2-3 hours' drive from Sydney. There are many attractions in the vicinity, warranting a stay of several days. To this end, the resort offers a range of accommodation, including backpackers, self-catering cabins, bed and breakfasts and hotels. Sand dunes and long stretches of coastline offer miles of scenic walks and safe beaches for bathing and riding horses or camels. Whales and dolphins can be spotted not far from shore or viewed from close up on a cruise boat.
