Newcastle

🚼Pram

The coastal walk from Nobbys Beach to Bar Beach is flat, sealed, and stroller friendly for several kilometres, and the harbourside Honeysuckle precinct is similarly easy going. Newcastle is generally a flat, walkable city compared to hillier parts of Sydney.

🍽️Food & Eating

Darby Street and the Honeysuckle waterfront have a great spread of casual, family friendly cafes and restaurants with high chairs. Supermarkets are conveniently located near most family accommodation.

🛡️Safety

A safe, relaxed coastal city with patrolled beaches at Nobbys and Newcastle Beach. Ocean pools like the Bogey Hole and Newcastle Ocean Baths are popular, calmer alternatives to open surf for young children.

🏥Hospitals

John Hunter Hospital is a major tertiary hospital with a dedicated children's emergency department, one of the best equipped in regional NSW. Pharmacies are plentiful across the city centre and suburbs.
