Newcastle Beach

It's a beautiful beach with some amazing views of the ocean and the coastline. We visited this during our road trip from QLD to Melbourne. There are clean wash rooms available for public use and 30 minutes free parking is also available along the road side around here. There is also a kiosk near the steps to the beach area, where coffee, snacks, drinks etc are available when it's open.

A beach that transcends above all other beaches in Australia. First of all it’s not crowded. It’s clean, the sand is fine 8/10 and golden in colour. Option of the beach with lifeguards, or the huge bogey hole or the massive ocean pool next to it all within a 2 minute walk. Also within a 2 minute walk are cafes, ice cream shop and Scottie’s - a gourmet fish and chip shop. This beach city is a 5-10minute walk to the city centre where there are plenty of restaurants, grocery shops and bars/pubs - and north of this beach are more beaches and Nobby’s lighthouse. It is pet and kids friendly. Locals are really friendly as well. A beautiful hidden part of Australia, highly recommend

What a great job the council had done. I have not been here for years and they have created one of the best beach walks in the country. Plenty of space for bikes and pedestrians. A skate park for the kids. Cafes along the walk or back on the main street..they have done a super job here.

Dear Readers, If you are in Newcastle and don’t spend at least a couple of hours sunbathing and dipping into Newcastle Beach, don’t even come!! I absolutely loved the beach! I am already planning my next trip back here :) Attached are some pictures to show you how beautiful, quiet, serene and enjoyable it was

Really beautiful beach with soft, fine sand. The waves were quite strong the day I visited, and the sun was bright. Much less crowded than the beaches in Sydney, even though I came during a school holiday. Be sure to check it out when you're in Newcastle!
