The largest and most famous banana in the world is found in Coffs Harbour. The Big Banana is a man-made homage to the fruit which contributed so much to the economy of this region. For over 40 years, generations of Australians have had their special photographic moment in front of the Big Banana. Sitting at the bottom of one of the biggest banana plantations that cover the hills surrounding the city, it is probably the most popular spot in the whole of Coffs Harbour to visit. Coffs Harbour is renowned for its beautiful beaches and dolphin or whale watching. Park Beach is the main beach in Coffs Harbour which is great for surfing. The best way to spend your holiday in Coffs (as the locals know it) is to enjoy the beach and also the abundant cafes, restaurants and shops.
Right on your doorstop you will also find many other neighbouring towns worth visiting with numerous national parks and waterfalls.
