}}Tomago is a combined industrial/semi-rural suburb of the Port Stephens local government area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia.[4] It is located just north of the Hunter River and west of the body of water known as Fullerton Cove.[8] Tomago means "sweet water" in the local Aboriginal language.[5]

Geography

Tomago is primarily flat with sandy soil and is surrounded on three sides by water. The Hunter River flows around the western and southern borders of the suburb. To the east is Fullerton Cove. There is no direct access to the land portion of the neighbouring suburbs of Tarro, Kooragang or Fullerton Cove. Access to and from Hexham is only possible via the Hexham bridges, which are actually located in the suburb of Tarro.

Industry

Major industrial sites in the area are the Tomago aluminium smelter, Forgacs Shipyard, Valley Longwall International and the Tomago Sandbeds water treatment works.

Hunter Region Botanic Gardens

The Hunter Region Botanic Gardens are adjacent to the eastern side of the Pacific Highway in the north of the suburb. The gardens cover an area of {{convert|140|ha|acre|0|abbr=on}}, including {{convert|30|ha|acre|0|abbr=on}} of themed parks and {{convert|105|ha|acre|0|abbr=on}} of natural bushland.[9]

Tomago House

Tomago House and its nearby chapel are heritage listed buildings on Tomago Road, the main road through the suburb, which provides access from the Pacific Highway to Newcastle Airport.[10] The chapel is approximately {{convert|250|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} to the west of Tomago House on a different block of land.
