Newport Suburb Profile 

This laid-back beachside suburb has a rugged beauty that makes you set your worries aside. Lush vegetation, rugged headlands, and a village ambience that encourages lazy days in the sun are just some of the reasons you’ll never want to leave living in Newport. When the heat index is up, locals are faced with a difficult decision – beach or bay? The grassy stretch of Bert Payne Park borders Newport Beach, a popular stomping ground for surfers. At the southern end of the beach, a saltwater lap pool is bordered by a rocky escarpment and rock pool. 

To the north of Newport Beach is a walking trail that winds up to Bilgola Heads, offering uninterrupted views of the coastline. To the south, Bungan Head Reserve looks down onto Bungan Beach, a local haunt that can only be accessed via steep slopes. 

The calm waters of Pittwater are the setting for the area’s boating enthusiasts, with plenty of marinas and boat ramps. For those who prefer a much more grounded experience of Pittwater, The Newport has you covered. This famous hotel offers alfresco dining and bars. 

Amidst all of this is intimate Newport village. With a sprinkling of coastal-themed shops, cafés, and restaurants, living in Newport is where the locals gather. Visitors eager to soak up the incredible Northern Beaches lifestyle are made very welcome.
