About COFFS HARBOUR

Coffs Harbour is a coastal city in northern New South Wales. It is a popular holiday spot for tourists because it is far enough north to be semi-tropical, but similarly close to Sydney (540km south of Coffs) and Brisbane (440km north of Coffs) along the Pacific Highway.

Coffs Harbour is the hub for a thriving banana industry. One of the biggest attractions is the Big Banana, the first of Australia's Big Things (it celebrated its 40th Birthday in 2005), with the World's Largest Banana celebrating the region's best known export. There is also a popular underwater diving spot on a small natural reef.

Nearby the Solitary Islands Marine Park preserves a diverse underwater ecosystem that mirrors the terrestrial biodiversity, covering the southern limit of northern tropical species and the northern limits of the southern temperate species. Directly out to sea from Coffs Harbour adjacent to the man-made breakwater is Muttonbird Island. The island is a nature reserve protecting a significant Wedge-tailed Shearwater breeding site.

The town today is a major coastal resort town, noted for its fishing as well as banana plantations. Muttonbird Island, the Big Banana and Bruxner Park Flora Reserve are some of the local attractions. It is noted for beautiful beaches and the many weekly markets in and around Coffs Harbour provide shoppers with an opportunity to purchase handmade local arts and crafts, a wide variety of fresh produce and delicious food.

The annual festivals include the Pittwater to Coffs Yacht Race in January and the Coffs Coast International Buskers Festival in October.

For the visitor who enjoys the bush There are many National Parks, Reserves and Marine Parks surrounding the city, including: Bellinger River National Park, Bindarri National Park, Bongil Bongil National Park, Cascade National Park, Coffs Harbour Regional park, Dorrigo National Park to name just a few.
