Explore the convenience of the East End.

Newcastle, it’s in the name, 'NEW' — no wonder we’re so great at innovation.

It’s all about Collaboration in Newy - just take a look at the West End, the gateway to the city.

We have dog beaches, parks and a very friendly dog owners community. So if you want a dog or have a dog you know you will be in excellent company here.

Only a short walk along one of our main beaches you will find 534 hectares of pristine bush, interspersed with walking and mountain bike trails. If you like exploring nature, this is the place for you!

In Newcastle we have the amazing walks all the way along our beaches and all the way along both break walls to make you feel like you are really in the ocean. The views are sweeping, the air is fresh and the best part is there are no crowds.
