Newcastle

Newcastle

The City of Newcastle is built along a spectacular coastline which offers pristine beaches, cranking surf, family friendly waters, shady picnic grounds and two inviting salt water ocean baths. A truly unique experience, Newcastle is known as the city on the beach - how many other cities offer the opportunity to enjoy a refreshing surf or swim, only minutes from the city centre, with locals on their lunch breaks?

After a day at the beach, some serious retail therapy and a laid back afternoon, take time out to enjoy a cosmopolitan dining experience. Choose from buzzy cafes and restaurants, diversity of entertainment from concerts to pub bands and a vibrant youth music scene, gourmet coffee shops and fine dining. Visit the funky inner city eat street, Darby Street; cosmopolitan Beaumont Street in Hamilton, or wander across to Honeysuckle to enjoy Newcastle’s newest Harbourside addition to the food scene.

Visit Newcastle to see for yourself why Lonely Planet has voted it one of the top 10 cities in the world to visit in 2011.
