In and around Coffs Harbour, New South Wales.

Winter 2017 we went up one of the many hills at Coffs Harbour in New South wales to take a few photos.  More beautiful beaches.
The weather was warm at 30 deg C and above whilst we were there, warmer than the year before.




Both the above and below photos are of Sawtell just below Coffs Harbour.


Below you can just see the horses in the water.

Coffs Harbour, New South Wales

We moved onto Coffs Harbour in NSW stayed in the same caravan park and even the same site!
Each day ducks came to visit at the same time for a feed, they would sit themselves down until fed.








What a glorious ride these horses and ponies would have had that day in Winter 2017.

The Big Banana, Coffs Harbour, NSW

Winter 2016.
The Big Banana at Coffs Harbour a busy place with an eatery with all things tasting banana flavour.
Ice skating rink, mini golf and a few other entertaining things to do and see.
We arrived late in the day so therefore wasn't so busy as they were getting ready to close.




Welcome to the gift shop


Many children were taking turns sitting of the mouses knee.

A view, Coffs Harbour NSW

Ventured to another lookout in Coffs Harbour whilst there in Winter 2016.
Walked out onto a platform to take these photos.  What a lovely area.

Not sure what is under the bird netting, the banana trees will need a tidy up below.

Photos of Coffs Harbour, NSW

After Ballina we headed to Coffs Harbour in Winter 2016 for about 1 weeks visit.  I have a cousin and his wife who live there so it was a good time to catch up with them.

Coffs Harbour is a city on the north coast of New South Wales, Australia. It’s known for its beaches and the Big Banana monument and amusement park. In the waters off Coffs Harbour Marina is the Solitary Islands Marine Park, home to abundant wildlife, seasonal whales and coral reefs. Just east is the Muttonbird Island Nature Reserve, with its large population of wedge-tailed shearwater birds and learning centre.
Coffs Harbour's economy was once based mainly on bananas, now being superseded by blueberries as well as tourism and fishing.
