Merewether Beach is located on the southern outskirts of Newcastle, the second largest city in New South Wales.
Merewether Beach is one of the surf resorts of New South Wales, with its famous right-hand wave spot and huge surges from the south, ideal for surfing, with a replacement room and coffee shop. One of Newcastle's most important festivals, the Surfest, Festival (early March of each year), is where thousands of people can watch surfers show off their skill on a huge surge.
The Merriwether Sea Bath in the south of Merewether Beach (Merewether Ocean Baths) is a popular artificial seawater pool.
