Reviewed By MMW55 - Lake Macquarie, Australia
On the second and fourth Saturday’s of the month markets are held at Speers Point Park. Set against wide views of Lake Macquarie, these markets are a great place to take visitors to the area. Stalls are constructed on either side of a wide promenade. Seasonal fruits and vegetables as well as a range of foods, drinks, coffee, breads, oils, crafts, flowers and plants are available. There is plants of seating, a jazz band entertains visitors and a huge children’s playground is adjacent to the area.
2. Cole Bros Oysters
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 12 reviews
Cole Bros Oysters supply premium oysters – six days a week direct from the shed. We’re located on the waterfront at Karuah, next to Longworth Park. Only a short boat ride up the Bay from Port Stephens or a quick five minute detour off the Pacific Hwy at the Karuah exit.

Choose the Pacific oysters, they are so huge and fresh and of course yum! their shop is also close to a park where you can take great photos of the river and is a great place for a picnic with family and friends. There is also a kids playground and a tables and chairs available to have lunch or the fresh oysters purchased form Cole bros! they are simply the best in town!
3. Wollombi Markets

We travel out to Wollombi for the June long weekend markets every year. Always lots on offer, old wares, home made sauces, clothes to newer items, hand made arts and crafts. Several food and coffee stalls always in attendance. The June public holiday is run by the local fire brigade which ask for a small donation upon entry but also put on a great bbq with very reasonable prices for breakfast and lunch. It attracts quite a crowd so pays to get out there early. Markets are on 4 times per year, Australia Day, Easter Monday, Monday(June long weekend) & Monday (October long weekend) For travellers there is caravan & camping availble adjacent to the markets behind the popular Wollombi Tavern.

It's a smallish market that showcases different stalls every weekend on rotation. Something for everyone, with live music and wine tasting in the cellar door, De Bortoli Wines has a sealed car park with disabled parking and toilets. Shopping consists of Fashion, Homewears, Accessories, Children's products, Food, Health and Beauty. Most of the products are 100% handmade weather they are locally made or not they are still hand crafted generally by the person behind the stall who is happy to help you. I always find this market to be very friendly with a great relaxed atmosphere
