Spectacular views of Newcastle and its beaches. Brilliant design; from just a hill it has been transformed into a regular walking trek while giving a great tribute to the Australian WW1 diggers! Not to be missed..

You can wander around the fort for free: there are some gun emplacements facing out to sea and three rooms describe the history of the fort (including how Newcastle was attacked by a Japanese submarine in WWII) and there are volunteers in army uniform around the site to explain things further. I also saw the 1pm cannon firing and did the paid ($12.50, 1h20m long) tunnels tour to see where the gunpowder and shells were stored and how firing the guns worked.

The museum is fantastic, plenty to see and do. The exhibitions are fabulous, especially the coal and steel exhibitions. There is lots of hands on activities for kids and adults. The old Newcastle tram and train are great. It is free admission. The museum building itself is great, as is the Civic park in front of the museum. This is definitely a must do if visiting Newcastle.

Nice spot without the crowds of other places. Whether it’s a surf, fish, swim or walk through the bush to the rock pools it’s a great place to spend half the day.
