The Jetty Picnic area in the Green Point Foreshore Reserve on Lake Macquarie offers a public jetty, a sheltered picnic table, seating, a drinking fountain and historical interpretative signs. The historical signs detail the 'timber getting' period of Green Point from 1860, with the timber used to build jetty's, pit prop for coal mining, ships and boats. There is also an historical sign detailing 'The Cardiff Coal Company', which mined coal out of Green Point during a minor coal rush.
