All about Coffs Harbour

Halfway between Sydney and Brisbane lies the dreamy Coffs Coast region of New South Wales, which encompasses 50 kilometres (31 miles) of Pacific Ocean shoreline as well as a tangle of hinterland laced with World Heritage-listed rainforest. At its heart lies Coffs Harbour, delivering everything you could want from a beach-meets-bush adventure. This laidback town is all about the great outdoors — whether you’re reclining on powdery stretches of sand at Jetty Beach, searching for whales or dolphins from Sealy Lookout, or hiking around Muttonbird Island, a sacred Indigenous site where wedge-tailed shearwaters nest. This jaw-dropping nature reserve is home to thousands of these beautiful birds, and their presence here defines the region as a birders’ paradise.

Treetops Adventure Park
