Newcastle, capital of the Hunter, is Australia's second oldest and sixth largest city. Built around a large working harbour, Newcastle is one of the nations largest working ports situated in the mouth of the Hunter River. Nobby's Breakwater and Lighthouse - the city's most famous icon, guard the river's entrance.
Ten magnificent beaches offer ample recreational opportunities around the city including surfing, beach fishing and swimming in the fabled Ocean Baths.
Newcastle boasts many magnificent parks. Relax in glorious King Edward Park, take in the splendid beauty of the Blackbutt Reserve or discover many of the other smaller parks scattered throughout the city.
A short two-hour drive north of Sydney, Newcastle is within easy access to attractions including rainforests, wilderness areas, and extensive vineyards as well as a buzzing music, nightlife and cafe scene.Photos
