Inflatable Pontoons Newcastle NSW
The Hunter River, Lake Macquarie and Port Stephens · Hunter region
For many in Newcastle, the real question is which pontoon size and style suits the Hunter River, not whether to get one.
Floating Platforms for Newcastle Locals
Newcastle sits at the mouth of the Hunter River, with Lake Macquarie to the south and Port Stephens to the north. For a short drive, Lake Macquarie is also worth considering alongside the Hunter River. Newcastle neighbours include Raymond Terrace, about 20 km to the north, Medowie, about 22 km to the north, and Maitland, about 30 km to the north-west.
