While Newcastle is known for its coal exports, it's also made a name for itself with a cultural boom.Explore Newcastle's surroundings by going to Norah Head Lighthouse (in Norah Head), Tomaree Head (in Shoal Bay) and Bagnalls Beach Reserve (in Corlette). The adventure continues: take in the pleasant sights at Newcastle Memorial Walk, do a tasting at Ivanhoe Wines, take in nature's colorful creations at Hunter Valley Gardens, and get your game on at UnrealVR.
Ask Inspirock to suggest an itinerary and make planning a trip to Newcastle fast, fun, and easy.
