Port Stephens !!!

Port Stephens lays claim to the title ‘Dolphin Capital of Australia’. The bay is home to around 150 bottlenose dolphins, and there are several tour operators in Nelson Bay that offer dolphin-watch trips. These playful aquatic mammals often ride the bow wave just a couple of metres from the vessel.

Thing to do

Take a dolphin-watch cruise from Nelson Bay.

Hire a catamaran, surf ski or a canoe from the beach at Shoal Bay.

Explore the beaches at Tomaree Head, at the north-eastern tip of Tomaree National Park.
