Stockton Beach battered by a massive swell | Newcastle Herald | April 2, 2022

Stockton Beach has been battered by a massive tide that sent waves crashing over the Mitchell Street rock wall, and sand dunes near Corroba Oval, inundating Meredith Street with water and debris, reaching as far as Fullerton Street - the only access road into the peninsula suburb.
