"Coffs Harbour and around..." Coffs Harbour by CandS

Coffs Harbour Travel Guide: 239 reviews and 522 photos

Coffs Harbour is a beautiful town as far as I remember it. A fairly touristy area with lots to see and do.

My very favourite thing in Coffs Harbour is the Pet Porpoise Pool...I would camp out there for months if they would let me! What a dream job working with dolphins all day long... :)

Coffs Harbour is about 550 kms (6 hours drive) north of Sydney or 430 kms (5 hours drive) south of Brisbane.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:The Pet Porpoise Pool!!! :)
  • In a nutshell:Great to visit even if just for the dolphins! :)
  • Last visit to Coffs Harbour: Dec 1997

    Hello Sherie, love the page. Since you were here last I think that the number of banana plantations has been drastically reduced - sadly. I think that the un-named beach may be Diggers. Thank you for the beaut page. Carole.

    that's the place where Carole (unravelau) lives, could not find her on your pics, but obviously she chose a great place to stay; dolphins and toboggans ... the Big Banana could be something for my children

    Looks like a terrific spot for a family holiday. Sliding down the big banana, eh? Hmmm.
