Not a long climb up a small hill - Australians will insist on calling these things a mountain - which it isn't. However, at the top the view is magnificent with very informative boards pointing out the many views in all directions. Well worth it for seeing the area spread out below you.

Well worth the stairs and the walk....husband managed to have baby in a harnessed backpack and walked up with only one rest. Easily marked walk so no risk of getting lost. All worth the magnificent scenery up the top.

Alicia and G were great with the kids (aged 6-10), however the ratio of instructors per child was far too high to provide appropriate assistance. They are apparently licensed for 1:8, but for kids this age, it probably should be much less for the kids to get something out of it.

It is maybe a km walk and climb up stairs to the lookout. The lookout from memory is 161 ft above sea level and offers an amazing view along the coast line and back inland over Nelson's Bay. Definitely worth the effort.

Luxury Yacht Charter. Charters available for 2 to 20 , sail only, luncheons, or oyster and cheee plate sunset sails.
Faultless service from start to finish.
Mark and Brett were fabulous hosts and they are a real credit to the business.
The oysters that were served were the best oysters I have ever eaten.
We're so thankful that we had amazing weather which made perfect sailing.
We will definitely recommend this sailing experience to all our family and friends. Can't wait to do it again

We accessed Bennetts Beach from the nearby caravan park and the 500 metre sandy track was an easy walk through a lovely Aussie forest. Accessing the beach involved trudging up and down a sand dune which was hard going for this overweight 75 year old. Still the beach itself is wild and relatively deserted with good clear water swimming conditions on the day we were there.

Soldiers Point Marina provides the perfect hub for exploring the magnificent waterways and hinterland of Port Stephens—a region covering nearly 1,000 square kilometres of scenic diversity, mild weather and extensive tourist facilities.Totally rebuilt to world-class standards, the marina offers the boatowner a state-of-the-art base, with a quality of services and facilities rarely seen on the eastern seaboard.The Marina is managed in an environmentally sensitive fashion, with a management team which recognises its responsibility in conserving this pristine environment for future generations.
There are three excellent eateries here and the views of the bay and environs are great. The location is West facing so this is a good spot for a "Sun Downer". It is really nice to walk around the pontoons looking at the fantastic yatchs...MoreThank you for your review of our beautiful marina, we love to hear customer feedback. We hope you visit us again soon. Many thanks Darrell and team.

This is one of the loveliest Beaches in the Port Stephens area. At the most, it is 10 minutes drive from the Nelson Bay CBD.
Access to the spit to Fingal Island ONLY AT LOW TIDE is also from this beach.
There are no shops around the beach, just residential houses so bring your own food and drink. There is a public restroom block in one of the parks nearby.
The sand here is soft. It can also be windy here.
This is also a patrolled beach at certain times of the day.
Definitely worth a visit. and don't forget to bring your camera.

Make sure you take the shortest track to the beach which roughly level with the caravan park's reception office. There is another track about 100 metres further east but that is less direct, much longer and the soft sand is a killer. Jimmy's Beach has nice clear water and enjoys good protection from ocean swells.
