About Coffs Harbour

Coffs Harbour, in Australia, is a coastal city located on the north coast of New South Wales about 540 km (340 mi) north of Sydney, and 390 km (240 mi) south of Brisbane. A popular seachange destination attracting people to relocate from big cities to smaller towns on the coast, Coffs Harbour continues to grow at an exceptional rate, with the city itself having a population of 26,353 and the greater region some 70,933 in 2011.

According to the CSIRO, Coffs Harbour has the most liveable climate in Australia, and it is nestled between a high mountain backdrop and dozens of "unspoilt" beaches. Coffs Harbour's economy is based mainly on farming (of bananas and blueberries), tourism, fishing and manufacturing.

The city has a campus of Southern Cross University, a public and a private hospital, several radio stations, and three major shopping centres. Coffs Harbour is near numerous National Parks, including a Marine National Park. There are multiple regular passenger flights each day to Sydney, Brisbane and Port Macquarie. Coffs Harbour is also accessible by road, by Countrylink trains, and by regular bus services.
