The twin towns of Hawks Nest & Tea Gardens are situated on the North Shore of Port Stephens, at the mouth of the tidal Myall River which leads to the Myall, Smith & Wallis Lakes, encompassing the Myall Lakes National Park.
Tea Gardens is nestled on the banks of the Myall River while Hawks Nest is situated on the narrow spit of land between the Myall River and the Tasman Sea. The towns have been connected by the “Singing Bridge” since its construction in 1974.Boasting nearly 40km of pristine beach, Bennett’s Beach stretches all the way to Seal Rocks with no sign of development anywhere. There is often surf at the southern end which is suited to bodysurfing. To the north are massive sand dunes and to the south the Yacaaba Headland.
This area is host to over 100 resident Bottlenose Dolphins, forests of ancient Paperbark trees, 280 species of birds including the endangered Gould’s Petrel, Koalas (sometimes seen in the trees in near the shops in Hawks Nest), Kangaroos, Goannas, Dingoes and many other famous Australian wildlife.
The Myall Lakes National Park provides many bushwalking opportunities, while off the coast, the Broughton group of islands is a scuba-diving paradise where subtropical and temperate zones meet and host both penguins and coral. Can you believe that all this is within a 25 kilometre radius and there are no crowds? Come and stay a while … you’re going to need the time!
