Coffs Harbour Travel Blogs

A few years ago, I drove from Sydney to Brisbane and along the way passed a sign to a butterfly farm. It was time for lunch so I decided to detour and take some time to meet a flutterby or two. I learnt quite a bit about the life of a Butterfly (the very short life). The butterfly enclos…

Tittle pretty much sums it up, as popping across the international date line made the 21st of Nov 2008 the longest day ever. After my family goodbyes in coffs harbour the day basically involved lots of sitting around airports. A 2hr delay after we had boarded the …

We spent some more time in Coffs Harbour, since there were a couple of things we wanted to see. The first one was the (in)famous Big Banana, which basically is exactly what the name suggests… J After that we took a detour to ‘Holland Down Under’, which off course can’t be missed by two Dutc…

Throughout Australia there are a number of big things. The Big Apple, The Big Chock (chicken), The Big Ned Kelly to name but a few. Well Coffs Harbour has the Big(est) Banana, not surprising because of the bananas grown locally. Since we were in the area we decided to check it out, although it does…

A real vacation has to include lying on a beach and reading a good book – so we did! The beach was a bit windy so we came back to the hotel swimming pool for a good hour. We had lunch at the wonderful Nautilus resort right at the beach in Coffs Harbour. It was the absolute best Cesar salad I have…

The alarm was set at 6:00am, as breakfast would be served at 7:00am and the bus would leave at 8:00am. Another long drive ahead of us towards our hotel in Kingscliff. But just like day one in Sydney, again great sunny weather with a nice temperature and clear skies with a cloud now and then. Along…

It's happening.... YEAH!Exciting times! Sat by myself trying to psych up to leave the country for an indefinate period. It's not as easy as you think. Really wanted someone to talk sh!t to, so Chris Moffatt came to see me off (he's a good bloke) & take a couple of photos of me in my nervous state. …

Coff's Harbor is a pretty pointless stop but it is between Surfer's Paradise and Sydney so it's nice to break up the drive a bit.  We stopped at Cape Byron, the most eastern point of mainland Australia.  Byron Bay is a total hippie town but definatly interesting.  Sadly there is …

After waking up early in the Coffs Harbour YHA I have my vitamine supplies for breakfast: 3 oranges, 4 kiwis and one banana. After that I walk to the beach and climb Moreton Bird Island. The wind blows like crazy and even the birds seem to struggle in the stiff breeze. I’m thinking of Bob Dyla…

We left Sydney at 7 am on the 3rd of Jan...New Year, new adventure we thought. The bus ride to Coffs Harbour took 9 hours so we were felling a little groggy when we got there (I especially felt bad as I was up from 3am the night before with terrible insomnia - sorry to those at home who I pestered …

Hi. On 4/2/09 two girls from little Denmark is on their way east to Vietnam, Australia, Singapore and Malaysia. We are back in Denmark 10/6/09 so we have four months to explore.

A blog about our planned trip to Australia and Singapore in 2007

My adventure so far.

Just a few pictures taken here and there. Take a look at my Wittenoom (western australia) pictures, guess they are pretty unique since everything left has been demolished in 2007 as far as i know.
