Colourful Breakwall, Oysters, Dolphins & Pelicans
Hastings River的点评
点评：The Hastings River is the wide, picturesque river, that runs through Port Macquarie.
There are many ways to enjoy the river and it’s not uncommon to see dolphins, pelicans and other seabirds here.
The easiest way to explore the river is to walk along the rocky break wall that runs beside it and finishes at where the mouth of the river meets the sea at Town Beach.
This is a very scenic and popular walk. The path along the break wall is level and flat so you can take a pushchair. At the Town Beach end visitors and locals have turned the rocks into something of an outdoor gallery. Some have created colourful, fun artwork, others have simply left their mark and some serve as memorials.
Above Town Beach, the Gaol Point Lookout offers sweeping views down over the river and break wall.
For river-side dining, I can recommend The Whalebone. We had dinner here one evening and made sure to book window seats table overlooking the river. It was very lovely.
At the other extreme, The Big Oyster, was great too. A rustic, blue shack, The Big Oyster is built out over the river and sells fresh seafood which you can eat on their floating pontoon or take away.
If we’d had more time in Port Macquarie, we’d have taken the punt across the river. You can drive your car onto the ferry and have a look around on the other side. It’s only a short trip (10 mins), you buy your ticket on the ferry and they run on a loop without a set timetable so it’s an easy thing to do on the spur of the moment. We have done it in the past but we didn’t have time this trip.

翻译：黑斯廷斯河是一条宽阔、风景如画的河流，流经麦夸里港。
欣赏这条河流的方式有很多种，在这里看到海豚、鹈鹕和其他海鸟并不罕见。
探索这条河流最简单的方法是沿着河边的岩石防波墙步行，终点是河口与大海在城镇海滩的交汇处。
这是一条风景优美且受欢迎的步行道。沿着隔离墙的小路平坦，因此您可以使用婴儿车。在城镇海滩末端，游客和当地人将岩石变成了户外画廊。有些人创作了色彩缤纷、有趣的艺术品，有些人只是留下了自己的印记，有些人则作为纪念。
在城镇海滩上方，从监狱角观景台 (Gaol Point Lookout) 可以将河流和断墙一览无遗。
对于河边用餐，我推荐The Whalebone。一天晚上我们在这里吃了晚餐，并确保预订了可以俯瞰河流的靠窗座位。非常可爱。
在另一个极端，大牡蛎也很棒。 The Big Oyster 是一座质朴的蓝色小屋，建在河上，出售新鲜的海鲜，您可以在浮桥上食用或外带。
如果我们在麦夸里港有更多的时间，我们就会划船过河。你可以把车开到渡轮上，到对岸看看。这只是一次短途旅行（10 分钟），您可以在渡轮上购买船票，渡轮会循环运行，没有固定的时间表，因此很容易一时冲动就去做。我们过去曾经这样做过，但这次我们没有时间。
