Port Stephens

Port Stephens, a 2.5-hour drive north of Sydney, is the kind of place that might just change your perspective on life. It’s where giant sand dunes provide the backdrop for exhilarating experiences, where dolphins and whales grace the coastline, and where picture-perfect beaches are the norm. Whether your tastes run from lip-smackingly fresh seafood to mountain biking through bush trails, Port Stephens delivers – and then some.
