Almost half way between Brisbane and Sydney lies the beautiful

beachside city of Coffs Harbour. As the heart of the Coffs Coast, Coffs

Harbour is well known for its friendly, relaxed atmosphere, its

spectacular coastline, and its many attractions and events. Coffs

Harbour, on the North Coast, is packed with family friendly attractions

cafes. The city also has a wide choice of accommodation, from motels to

glossy resorts and small, exclusive boutique retreats.

Coffs Coast is the regional tourism destination taking in the Coffs

Harbour and Bellingen areas on the North Coast of NSW. This is where

the Great Dividing Range meets the Pacific Ocean, leaving a small

paradise lodged between the mountains and the sea.

Coffs Coast region encompasses the rainforest escarpments of Dorrigo

to the golden beaches stretching from Hungry Head and Urunga to

Woolgoolga and the blue waters of Solitary Islands Marine Park. It

boasts a wonderfully temperate climate all year round.

Location and


(Cont’d):

Coffs Harbour (Cont’d):

According to the CSIRO, Coffs Harbour has the most liveable climate in

Australia being nestled between a high mountain backdrop and many

unspoiled beaches. Its economy is based mainly on farming (bananas),

tourism and manufacturing.

Being one of Australia’s most liveable environments it averages a

maximum 24°C and a minimum 13°C. The sea temperature averages a

summer temperature of 23°C, the winter average is 18°C

Coffs Harbour owes its name to John Korff, who named the area

Korff’s Harbour when he was forced to take shelter from a storm in the

area in 1847. Its name was accidentally changed by the surveyor for the

crown when he reserved land in the area during 1861.

By the early 1900s, the Coffs Harbour area had become an important

production centre. Before the opening of the North Coast Railway Line,

the only way to transport large items of heavy but low value, such as

timber, was coastal shipping. This meant sawmillers on the North

Coast were dependent on jetties either in rivers or off beaches for

exporting their timber. Timber tramways were constructed to connect

both the timber-getting areas and the sawmills to the jetties built into

the ocean of Coffs Harbour.

The Coffs Harbour Jetty is an historically important timber wharf

where coastal shipping once moved the timber from the hinterland.
