Castaways is ideally located right across the road from popular Shoal Bay Beach and just a block from the popular Shoal Bay Country Club, as well as cafes, restaurants, boutiques, and shops including a chemist, newsagent and IGA grocery store. Along the picturesque stretch of beach you'll find calm water swimming, soft white sand, the wharf, boat ramp, and hiring options for stand up paddle boards and kayaks. At the eastern end of the beach, just 600m from your apartment is the Tomaree Head Summit walk, where you can follow the trail up to the lookout to take in breathtaking views over the pristine Port Stephens coastline. You're also just a 5-minute drive to Nelson Bay and its marina, where dolphin watch cruises operate daily. When you're done exploring for the day, simply sit back, relax, breathe in the fresh salty air and enjoy the view out over the water from your front patio.
