Description

Windmill Hill Reserve, located in Port Macquarie, Australia, is a small, yet beautiful park situated on a high point on the coast.

Its location was once home to Major Innes' corn and wheat grinding mill which was powered by canvas sails that rotated stone grinding wheels. Today, it is a popular tourist spot for whale watching in the winter and viewing dolphins playing in the sea.

A visit to Windmill Hill Reserve provides an excellent opportunity to enjoy the views of the ocean and the surrounding area. The park is a famous lookout point to spot whales and dolphins making waves in the sea. You can also stay active while enjoying the views by using the outdoor exercise equipment available in the park or training up and down the stairs that lead from the lookout point to the grassy hill. For those who seek a little bit of history, visitors can explore the historic site of the corn and wheat grinding mill.

The best time to visit Windmill Hill Reserve is during the winter months when the whale watching season is in full swing. Peak times at the park could be crowded with fitness enthusiasts, while avoiding these times could give a quieter experience.

Windmill Hill Reserve is accessible by driving, public transportation or foot. The park is part of the Port Macquarie Coastal Walk and is easily visible from the trail. Visitors can also access the reserve from the stairs leading up to the grassy hill. The park is located north of Rocky Beach and south of Oxley Beach.
