One of the places where you can see some of these specialty marine wildlife species is the Port Stephens Great Lakes Marine Park, which was established in 2005 to showcase many of the unique fishes of the area.

Pineapple Fish

One of the most famous fishes is the Pineapple fish, which is almost exclusively a fish in the Port Stephens area. As one can imagine, this beautiful fish resembles a pineapple. In following with the fruit theme, there is a passion flower feather star that also inhabits this region exclusively.

For those who are interested in unique seahorses, sharks, and eels, there are a number of specialties in the Port Stephens region as well. The Crested horn shark is a well-known species that inhabits the area as is the saw-tooth Moray eel and White’s seahorse. Rounding out the family of specialty Port Stephens’ species is the eastern Fiddler Ray.
