When:
Every Sunday from 9am
Where: 1st & 3rd Sunday at Neil Carol Park,

Every
Sunday, Port Stephens plays host to a fantastic market.
Stall holders from all over the district come to the
markets to sell their wares. from stained glass to fresh
fruit and veges, you sure to find something here to
catch your eye.
On
the 1st and 3rd Sunday each month, the markets are held
at Neil Carrol Park near the Nelson Bay RSL club. The
easiest way to find this is to drive along the Nelson
Bay foreshore towards Shoal and Fingal Bays and you
will see the markets on the left hand side of the road
just before the RSL club.
On
the 2nd and 4th Sunday, you will find the markets at
the Tomaree Sports Oval complex on the left hand side
of Nelson Bay road. This is just after the main roundabout
( Nelson Bay rd/Salamander Bay ) on Nelson Bay.
