Just metres from the shore, you’ll find colourful sponge gardens, kelp forests and an incredible variety of marine life. Follow your local guide as you search for giant blue gropers, rays, octopus, wobbegong sharks, schools of fish, turtles and even elusive seahorses. Perfect for beginners and experienced snorkellers alike, your guide will help you feel comfortable in the water while sharing local knowledge about the marine life and sanctuary along the way.

About Newcastle
Newcastle is a coal-port city at the mouth of the Hunter River in New South Wales, with surf beaches, ocean baths and a lighthouse on a long breakwater.
Newcastle began as a convict settlement in 1804 and grew around coal and, later, steelmaking, and its harbour is still among the largest coal ports in the world. The centre curves around the water, with Christ Church Cathedral on the hill and heritage buildings along Hunter Street. Nobbys Head, a headland topped by a lighthouse, is joined to the shore by a long breakwater, and Fort Scratchley, a nineteenth-century coastal fort, guards the harbour mouth.
