Take a trip to Foreshore Park. This public area is the perfect place to watch the dance of the harbour. See the large container ships guided around the harbour by tiny tugs, and watch as these ships parallel park alongside the wharf.
Visit Nobby’s Beach and take in the acrobatic skills of the kite surfers or pack an esky and have a BBQ. From the beach, it’s a short walk to the ocean baths. Here you can swim in a pool fed directly from the ocean. There are also a few other beaches spotted along Newcastle's coastline, so a day at the beach is never out of the question.
