Port Stephens is blessed with many interest- ing landscapes, through which pass a number of excellent walking tracks. Enjoy the superb views from the tops of Gan Gan Hill, Tomaree Peak, Stephens Peak and Yacaaba. There are walks around the estuary of Port Stephens, freshwater and tidal swamps, cliff tops, forests, heathlands and beaches. The Tomaree Peninsula has about 650 plant spe- cies, 230 bird species, 48 mammal species and 38 reptile species so far recorded. By visiting a few habitats over 3 hours you should find about 30 wildflower species in bloom (40 in the spring) or if you are interested in bird spotting you should see at least 25 species in that time.
