Merewether Beach

Home to international surfing competitions and seafront restaurants, this beach is as action-packed as it is photogenic from clifftop pathways.

Merewether Beach
A great little park right near the Newcastle train station. Perfect little place to take the kids and have a family picnic. Lots of open spaces and plenty of birds to watch. Such a lovely spot to enjoy in the day. Please head over to my blog to read more about a day trip to Stockton.

Foreshore Park

Foreshore Park is just one of the places to see in Newcastle, so why not enjoy the other things to explore during your travels? Stroll along the area's waterfront, or simply savor its lively bars.

A lovely clean apartment with everything you could need. Quiet, despite being above the railway station. Would have been more suited to a longer stay with my wife.
