New Victoria is located west of New Waterford and east of Victoria Mines. It is approximately 10 kilometres north of Sydney.
It is a small, close-knit community which has a small church (St. Joseph's Church-Roman Catholic) and a lighthouse named the Low Point Lighthouse. New Victoria is also the site of Fort Petrie, a 20th-century fortification and observation post which functioned during both world wars. The fort is now a museum.[1]
