All about Caves Beach
If ever a destination was accurately named, Caves Beach is it. Located on the Swansea Peninsula north of Sydney — between Lake Macquarie (the largest saltwater lake in the Southern Hemisphere) and the Pacific Ocean — this tiny town hosts a wide array of sea caves, with long stretches of powdery sand linking each. But its natural assets extend beyond its eponymous features: like the surrounding national parkland and hinterland mountains, draped with forest and offering a mecca for adventure enthusiasts. Any stay here is a step back in time in the best possible way, with the clock slowed to allow for long days of boating, swimming, fishing, and just doing, well, not that much at all. The best Caves Beach days end with ocean-fresh fish and chips, enjoyed with your feet nestled in the sand by the water’s edge.
What are the top things to do in Caves Beach?
Lake Macquarie
Lake Macquarie spans a mind-blowing 32 kilometres (20 miles) of coastline and is twice the size of Sydney Harbour. It’s also the largest saltwater lagoon in the Southern Hemisphere, which means plenty of space for uninterrupted swimming, surfing, boating, fishing, or just relaxing on golden sandy beaches. Most lakeside towns here have epic farmers’ or craft markets — be sure to pick up local produce, seafood, or artisan bread for your stay.
Newcastle
Newcastle lies just north of Caves Beach. It may not be the biggest city in New South Wales, but it takes home other records as Australia’s second-oldest city and the state’s busiest sea port. Visit to surf, cruise, swim in historic ocean pools, or spot dolphins along epic coastal trails. Then explore atmospheric neighbourhoods like Cooks Hill, home to galleries, design stores, and cool cafes.
Museum of Art and Culture Lake Macquarie
This regional gallery hosts world-class exhibitions, many of which spotlight artists with a connection to the area. Peruse works — including pieces in the sculpture park — by notable local creatives and learn about the region’s Aboriginal community and prominent figures in the process. If you’re inspired by what you see, take an art class here, or pick up a glossy book in the well-curated gift shop.
