One of our favourite gems in Port Stephens is celebrating family get-togethers at Boat Harbour. It's one of those hidden delights, perfect for families and fur-friends!
Getting there is a breeze - just off Gan Gan Road - and the moment you arrive, you'll find easy access to a safe, kid-friendly beach. We spent the whole day soaking in the beginning of spring warmth and the start of those glorious sun-drenched days we've all been craving.
Picture this: a picnic lunch at one of the many picnic tables, a barbecue sizzling, and the whole family enjoying delicious food while kids can enjoy scrambling over the park overlooking the secluded bay. And the beach is fur-friendly too!
The best part? There's so much to do! A swim in the calm waters, a spot of fishing, and exploring the Tomaree Coastal Walk with further stunning beaches, lookouts to spot the whales passing by.
It's a favourite of ours where we have created priceless family memories. Enjoy! 🐶👨👩👧👦

We know there are countless beautiful bay areas in Port Stephens to explore - we love them all! - but we do have a soft spot for our own home of Fingal Bay.
Imagine taking a leisurely stroll along the pristine shoreline, feeling the warm sand between your toes and the gentle sea breeze on your skin. Or perhaps you prefer to dive into the crystal clear waters for a refreshing swim. Or surf or snorkel or more!
How about a bike ride along the coast, with stunning views of the bay as your backdrop? The bike track extends all the way to Shoal Bay too! Or a relaxing picnic on the beach, surrounded by the sounds of breaking waves and chirping birds. And let's not forget about the breathtaking coastal walk that is truly a delight with every step.
We know that many of you have already enjoyed Fingal Bay's many wonders. But if you can't make it just yet, don't worry. We've created a little sneak peek in our video. Trust us, it's just a taste of what's waiting for you here. See you soon!

🌊🌴🚶♂️ Another magical day exploring from Boat Harbour to Fisherman's Bay along the #TomareeCoastalWalk in #PortStephens! 😍 What delighted us was finding Little Kingsley Beach along the way - a truly hidden gem in Tomaree National Park. 🏝️ There is so much to enjoy and so many places to see the stunning views 🌅 And an added bonus is the beautiful coastal woodland near Fisherman's Bay - just simply delightful! 🌳

🤩 I've lost count of how many times I have walked up to Tomaree Headland at Shoal Bay - it's simply breathtaking every single time! The views in every direction are magical - north to Broughton Island, south to Fingal Spit and west over Shoal Bay and the many bays of Port Stephens.
And now it is even more special as the iconic start of the Tomaree Coastal Walk 🤩 ❤️🌅

☀️ Winter days at Fingal Bay beach and the magic of special family time with loved ones 😍❤️
We remember so many special times shared at the beach with all the simple joys - making "dams", building sand castles, searching for special shells, playing soccer, running after seagulls and endless other delights!
It is all about enjoying the bright sunshine and making memories together and there is nothing better than a day of fun on bright winter days 🤗 🌞

Another magical day! And yes, more breathtaking views in every direction. 🤩
This time, we explored the Tomaree Coastal Walk from One Mile Beach to Samurai Beach, and back again although the walk continues in either direction.
Be mesmerised by the stunning views from Middle Rock of both One Mile Beach and Samurai Beach! 🤩🌊 Enjoy a leisurely stroll, swimming, fishing, a fun day with the kids, exploring the beach, the rocky outcrops and the wonders of the rock pools, or scrambling up and down the dunes that hug the shoreline.
Sumarai is also accessible by 4WD - take care in busy periods and weekends with some drivers who seem to miss the speed signs. 🤔
The Tomaree Coastal Walk is simply fabulous - so many beautiful views 🌅 of the national park areas, beaches, shorelines and ocean.

We still are so much in love ❤️ with one of the new sections of the Tomaree Coastal Walk, at Boat Harbour.
And yes, this was the actual view - no video changes or filtering! - just the brilliant colours that Mother Nature presented to us.
The path meanders through bushland area first (we took the clockwise direction) and then continues along the cliff and ocean edge with so many places to stop and gaze, plus lookouts and little bridges along the way - just wow! 😍😍

Every day, the view of "our backyard" is different. To be able to see it in all its various beauty - from the sunny and peaceful turquoise hues to the stormy steel grey blues, its just always magic; every changing and we are just so lucky!!
Oh and forgot to mention where 👉 Fingal Bay, Port Stephens 😍❤️
