Things to do in and around Corindi Beach...
Corindi Beach Holiday Park is located close to National Parks and the popular holiday destination of Coffs Harbour. Guests can enjoy swimming, surfing, fishing and bush-walking at any time but occasionally one may wish to venture outside the park and experience the surrounding area.
From the park, guests can stroll along the boardwalk which stretches along the coastline through the Nature Reserve. Mounted above the natural vegetation, with magnificent views of the rugged coastline, this boardwalk allows guests to venture into areas that are normally inaccessible. Catch a glimpse of native wildlife, watch for coastal bird species and breathe in the fresh coastal air. This walk is a holiday experience not to be missed.
Also close by are National Parks and State Forests that provide a menagerie of native plants and wildlife to observe. (Please view “Places To Go” pages)
Close to the park (15 – 20 min walk) is the Amble Inn Tavern. Meals are available 7 days and guests can enjoy the bar and recreational activities available.
Also close by is the Yarrawarra Aboriginal Cultural Centre. Here park guests can learn about the historical significance and aboriginal culture of the area. This centre also has conference and education facilities. To learn more about our Aboriginal heritage look for the Yarrawarra Aboriginal Cultural Centre just north of CorindiBeach on the Red Rock road.
Only a short drive south of CorindiBeach, (30 mins) the city of Coffs Harbour has many attractions to keep holiday-makers entertained and amused for many hours. The iconic Big Banana is a favourite with the entire family. Here guests can ride down the slopes on a toboggan or slip and slide all over the ice skating rink. Very popular with all age groups the ice skating rink, housed within the Big Banana complex, provides hours of holiday fun. While at the Big Banana visit Curious Minds where you’ll find a huge collection of puzzles and games for all the family. The Candy Kitchen is another holiday favourite. View hot candy being twisted and rolled into shape and sample the many varieties of fresh sweets cut into sample sizes right before your eyes. A day at the Big Banana will add plenty of fun to your CoffsCoast holiday experience.
The Clog Barn is another favourite attraction. View traditional dutch clogs being made and try out a pair by wearing them for the afternoon. Visit the miniature dutch village complete with model trains and cleverly crafted miniature replicas of houses, waterways, bridges, parklands and grand old buildings. Relax in the coffee shop and enjoy a delicious lunch or morning/afternoon tea before browsing through the gift shop.
The Pet Porpoise Pool is another favourite that has stood the test of time. Watch the clever dolphins and seals perform and be mesmorised by the “snake man” with his informative presentation and collection of venomous snakes. Visit the fairy penguins’ enclosure and get to know the dolphins by swimming with them at pre-arranged times during the day. After the excitement of the various shows, spend some time in the coffee shop enjoying a variety of meals and snack foods.
Visit the Botanic Garden in Hardacre Street. Stroll through the sensory garden, across the mangrove boardwalk and enjoy the bushland and creek walks before viewing the extensive plant display areas.
The Bunker Cartoon Gallery is Australia’s only public cartoon gallery. Housed within a World War 2 bunker, this gallery has an amazing collection of original cartoons.
Visit the Butterfly House. See the live butterfly displays and enjoy the challenge of the maze. View the talent displayed in the wood turning gallery, then relax in the tea rooms and souvenir shop before returning to the holiday park at MooneeBeach.
Coffs Jetty Pier, Coffs Harbour Marina and Coffs Promenade are all popular with locals and visitors alike. Stroll along the boardwalk and venture over to Muttonbird Island to enjoy stunning coastal views. Relax at the Day Spa or enjoy specialty shopping as you wander through the promenade.
For the more adventurous there’s skydiving, helicopter flights, jet ski hire, surf lessons, go-karting, horse riding, scuba diving, kayaking and motorcycle rides, all to be enjoyed as part of your holiday experience while staying at Corindi Beach Holiday Park.
