Coffs Coast And Countryside
The Coffs Coast is a magnificent region of Australia.
Spread inland from Dorrigo to the beach town of Woolgoolga
down to the Scotts Head, with Coffs Harbour in the centre,
it is ideal for a campervan holiday. Inland the rainforest
beckons you on to national parks, rivers and beautiful
scenery, and the coastal towns are set against amazing
beaches and stunning landscapes.
Coffs Harbour, located almost halfway between Sydney and
Brisbane , is the perfect destination for anyone searching
for sunshine, water sports, fishing and relaxation. It has
everything for the most selective traveller, with ample
shopping, restaurants and attractions, such as the famous
Big Pineapple, to national parks, isolated beaches and
scenic coastal roads.
The sub-tropical environment brings almost perfect weather
for most of the year, with hot, wet summers and cool, dry
winters. The Coffs Coast is known as one of the best
climates in Australia, which is fantastic for its growing
tourism industry.
There are plenty of caravan parks available, one favourite
being Emerald Park Holiday Park, right on the beach located
19km north from the city. With a great pool, park for the
kids and fantastic views you will have a great place for
your holiday.
The attractions in Coffs Harbour are endless, with the local
Coffs Harbour Zoo and Pet Porpoise Pool both favourites with
families, and of course the Big Banana, which also features
a thrilling toboggan ride and ice skating rink.
The hub of Coffs Harbour is Jetty Beach, which is set off by
the surrounding yachts and restaurants lining the harbour
and framed by the timber jetty which runs through the middle
of the beach. The strip of coastline on either side of
this beach is picture perfect and popular for long walks,
fishing, swimming, or just lazing about doing nothing!
Opposite this beach is Muttonbird Island, famous for its
thousands of muttonbirds which fly in from the South Pacific
around late August. It is also a great place to look for
humpback whales which migrate in June or September. The
walk to the top is achievable for most ages, and worth the
hike to experience the coastal and ocean views.
Coffs Harbour is also a fantastic base to explore the
surrounding region, such as the Nymboida River, famous for
its white water rafting. There are many world heritage
rainforests easily accessible for a day trip.
The Dorrigo National Park is easily accessible and only 60km
west from Coffs Harbour. With picturesque drives, plenty
of roadside stops and magnificent views, this world heritage
rainforest is worth the drive for lasting memories. The
best place to start is to visit the Dorrigo Rainforest
Centre, which also has a Skywalk above the canopy of trees
which is great for the whole family.
You can’t go past Sawtell, located only 10km south of Coffs
Harbour, it is seems to have all the ingredients for a
perfect day, with stunning beaches, rock pools, national
park and incredible scenery. The Sawtell Beach Caravan Park
is the best choice if you want to stay for a while, and a
great alternative if you need a base the rest of the coast.
The Coffs Coast is also known for its underwater attraction,
the Solitary Islands Marine Park, which is named for its
five rocky islands. Its marine life is hard to match in
Australia, and is well known among scuba divers and
snorkellers.
The entire region brings you diversity and stunning beauty,
as you round every corner there is something new to see and
it is hard not to pull over for photos or a closer view.
The best part of a campervan holiday is that you can do just
that, and take your time deciding where to base yourself for
the next few days. The Coffs Coast is known as one of the
most scenic coastlines in Australia, which is easy to
understand. One thing is for sure, you will be back again
one day!
