Dive into Merewether Ocean Baths
Go for an invigorating swim at the Ocean Baths.
Go for a super scenic swim at Merewether Ocean Baths, the largest ocean baths in the Southern Hemisphere. Built in 1935 and set right on the coast, they're a stunning, family-friendly place for a dip. Get there at sunrise for an unbeatable photo op. There are also the nearby Newcastle Ocean Baths, which are an icon of Art Deco style.
