Port Stephens, NSW

Port Stephens is located just over 200 kilometres (a 2.5 hour drive) north of Sydney and 50 kilometres (45 minutes drive) north of Newcastle. A deepwater harbour, it is 2.5 times the size of Sydney Harbour, and extends over 20 kilometres inland. Port Stephens has remained relatively unspoilt, avoiding the high-rise rush adopted by other areas along the NSW coast.

Please note that Port Stephens is not a town, it is a tourism sub-region. For a full list of towns in and around Port Stephens please follow the link at the bottom of this page, entitled "Show me a list of other towns in the Hunter Valley".

White sandy beaches and natural bushland fringe the shore of the 25km long harbour. Carrington is the earliest settlement founded in 1826 as headquarters of the Australian Agricultural Company.
