PHOTOS FROM PORT STEPHENSI first went to Port Stephens when I was a little boy in the 1970 s , back then it was mainly holiday cottages along the waterfront .
These days  it is a fast growing suburbia as more people move into the area where there was bushland now filled with houses and still growing.
Despite the growing population it still remains a beautiful place to visit and live withy an abundance of wildlife such as parrots ,whales , snakes and many more as well as beautiful beaches.
Port Stephens is two hours drive north of Sydney close but far away enough for when I want to get away from Sydney one can laze on the beach there are a few to choose from or go whale watching plenty of dolphins around as well .
In short Port Stephens is a playground well worth the visit you will not be disappointed .
