Best Nature and Parks (RV, National, Dog, etc) in Coffs Harbour

"The North Coast Regional Botanic Garden was opened in 1988 and is without a doubt one of the most spectacular of its kind in the region. The garden covers over 20 hectares and is bounded on three sides by Coffs Creek. The garden was designed to feature a rainforest with rare and endangered native plants."

"Stroll amongst hundreds of beautiful Australian butterflies in one of Coffs Harbour’s most remarkable attractions. The award-winning Coffs Harbour Butterfly House is set in an indoor subtropical rainforest and allows visitors to observe the many types of native butterflies in their natural habitat. Visitor tip: The butterflies are typically most active between 10 am and 2 pm due to the light, temperature and humidity levels so it’s highly recommended to visit in those hours."

"A year round attraction, the Butterfly House is aflutter with more than 400 Australian butterflies at any one time. This is an indoor subtropical rainforest environment, rich with palms and ferns, and with the chance to see butterflies flying, courting, mating, sipping nectar or landing on your hand. The best time to come to see these many-coloured insects is between 10:00 and 14:00 when they are most active."

"Butterfly enthusiasts can walk through the indoor setting among hundreds of butterflies and if you are lucky enough, have them land on you. But Coffs Harbour Butterfly House has much more than butterflies on offer. You can also visit a fairy garden, get lost in a maze or watch a dinosaur show!"

"The causeway that serves as Coffs Harbour’s northern breakwater will lead you to this steep green island at the southernmost end of the Solitary Islands Marine Park. First up, Muttonbird Island is a great vantage point, where you can look out to the Solitary Islands on the east side or turn back and survey the Coffs Coast and hilly hinterland. Watch the ocean and you may see a stingray, sea turtle or dolphin popping up."

"The Gumbaynggirr people knew this island as Giidany Miirlarl (Place of the Moon). It was joined to Coffs Harbour by the northern breakwater in 1935. The walk to the top (steep at the end) provides sweeping..."

"Centrally situated, Coffs Harbour YHA allows for easy access to Coffs Harbour's main hot spots. It also offers free Wi-Fi, a free shuttle service and an outdoor pool."

"The third largest undersea protected area in New South Wales, the Solitary Islands Marine Park is an extraordinary marine wonder. With tropical, sub-tropical and temperate fish and coral there’s a remarkable diversity of natural life here, as well as some delightful beaches along its 75km of coastline. Boat trips, whale watching, fishing, diving and snorkelling can all be arranged in this marvellous underwater reserve."

"Views take in the charming working harbour to the jetty and Muttonbird Island, or across to the Pacific Ocean at this popular seafood spot. Gorge on seafood platters – available for one ($130) or two people..."

"A lively pub with several bars, hosting bands five nights a week and DJs on weekends. Head around the side to the cocktail bar for a slightly less full-on atmosphere for craft beer and cocktails on tap."

"Food is best shared, conversation is best vibrant and laughter is best loud at Fiasco Ristorante + Bar on Orlando Street in Coffs Harbour. Soak up breezes alfresco in balmy weather, or find an intimat..."
