Port Stephens Tours & Activities | Top Things to Do - Australia Your Way

<p>Port Stephens promises the adventure of a lifetime no matter when you choose to visit, but the best time to go is during the warmer months in Spring and Summer. This is when you can enjoy the beach, water activities, and (if you visit early in the springtime) the whale-watching season!<br />
&nbsp;</p>

<p>Port Stephens is about a 2.5-hour drive north of Sydney. If you want to leave the car at home, you could also visit Port Stephens on a guided tour from Sydney and leave the driving to someone else!&nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;</p>

<p>You&rsquo;ll definitely want to spend the day visiting as many highlights as possible! To start, you&rsquo;ll want to check out Anna Bay, the Stockton Sand Dunes, and the Worimi Conservation Lands. We&rsquo;d also recommend hopping on a boat tour to encounter Port Stephens&rsquo; resident dolphins and whales. If you&rsquo;re unsure whether you&rsquo;ll have enough time, we&rsquo;d suggest leaving the scheduling to the experts and booking one of the many day trips to Port Stephens so you don&rsquo;t miss out!<br />
