Really awesome place to see Port Kembla as industrial area but then natural beauty. Plenty of infor on the Battery back in the war days. Only thing I was disappointed was the last line defence battery that you would not notice if you're walking from the carpark in disrepair. It is hidden behind scrub and inside it looks like they started to do the floor and then just left it. If your adventurous and want to see what the last line if defence is it's worth the effort

A must to see!!! Breakwater Battery Museum Port Kembla offers astonishing viewes over the surronding area. Its a quiet plcae to well siuted as for the memorial statues. Free car parks available and its onle 5 min from the main street. Highly recommended!!!

Parking is a bit dodgy. You could go the other side and find some. I did pass someone who was complaining about there being no where to sit at cafe that was dog friendly, ie don’t take your dogs

Really interesting place to visit I know there are all sorts of tunnels underground here which are now closed to public access, as a student at Albion Park High saw may military tunnels around the area on trips to interesting places similar to this and Hill 60 a little further south but still really close. A mix of fascinating history and other various atrifacts to see, with some fantastic coastline on the other side, and the past and present of the port...
