The earliest inhabitants of Port Stephens were the Aborigines of the Worimi Tribe whom Charles Grimes referred to as a taller, stouter race of people than those about Sydney with a completely different language.

Port Stephens was first noted by Europeans in May 1770 when Captain James Cook referred to Port Stephens in his log as "an opening forming a bay". He went on to describe; "Wind southerly in the day and in the night westerly, a gentle breeze and clear weather. At 4pm past at a distance of one mile a low rocky point which I named Point Stephens... on the north side of this point is an inlet which I called Port Stephens that appears from the masthead to be sheltered from all winds".

Despite his description, Cook never entered the Port. It wasnt entered until 1791 when a whaler commissioned as a convict transport called the Salamander entered the Bay. In the year 1795, Captain W.R. Broughton (after whom Broughton Island is named) on HM Providence was driven by bad weather past his destination of Port Jackson into Port Stephens for shelter. He was amazed to discover four white men living amongst the Aborigines, survivors of a party of five convicts who escaped from Parramatta. Numerous plans were made for Port Stephens including locating the Australian Capital at Pindimar on the northern shores and developing Port Stephens as a naval base.
