Shoal Bay Accommodation & Holiday Rentals

Tucked into the heart of Nelson Bay, Shoal Bay is a coastal paradise that makes you want to stay a little longer. Just a 2.5-hour drive from Sydney, this vibrant village is famous for its calm aquamarine waters, iconic dining, and the striking backdrop of Tomaree Head.

Whether you are looking for a cosy beachfront unit or a spacious holiday house for the extended family, our Shoal Bay accommodation puts the best of the bay at your doorstep:

• The Beaches: Swim and paddleboard in the calm waters of Shoal Bay Beach, or take a short walk to explore the dramatic coastlines of Zenith and Box Beach. (Read our Port Stephens Beach Guide)
• Local Dining: You are steps away from a foodie’s paradise. Enjoy Mediterranean share plates at Atmos, woodfired pizzas at the iconic Shoal Bay Country Club, or a relaxed breakfast at The Cafe. (View our Local Dining Guide)
• Adventure & Views: Step into Tomaree National Park and hike the Tomaree Head Summit Walk for sweeping views over the coastline, or explore the WWII gun emplacements at Fort Tomaree. (See Things to Do in Nelson Bay)
