A fascinating insight to the Western Harbour of Port Stephens

Discover the hidden history of Port Stephens’ Western Harbour aboard MV Spirit of Port Stephens with renowned local historian John ‘Stinker’ Clarke.

Cruise through the tranquil waters of Pindimar, Fame Cove and North Arm Cove, uncovering the stories behind Tahlee House, the region’s pioneering communities and the rich heritage of Port Stephens’ oyster farming industry. Learn about the challenges and successes that have shaped one of Australia’s most iconic oyster-growing regions.

Arriving at the beautiful Karuah River, enjoy a light lunch at the newly renovated Karuah RSL before rejoining the cruise to explore the working oyster leases. Your return journey takes in the scenic shores of Soldiers Point, Salamander Bay and Corlette, with fascinating commentary and stunning harbour views throughout.

A unique blend of history, local stories and spectacular scenery, this cruise offers an unforgettable insight into the lesser-known side of Port Stephens.
