Mid North Coast Waterfront Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

What was once a Gaol is now home to several families of Kangaroos and a popular camping spot. #history
A very quiet beach next to the more popular main beaches of Forster, Burgess beach has some amazing rock formations making it a great sunrise photography location. #nature #trovember
This is not your classic Ebor Falls shot.  This was taken at the base of the second falls, a difficult walk down a serious downhill.  Still, it was worth it for the photo.
One of the most breathtaking beaches I've ever been to!
Oh, this is a trail worth hiking!  On our Pacific Wanderings Road Trip, from Sydney to Byron Bay, we diverted to the mountains from the coast at Coffs Harbour to explore Dorrigo.  Such a great place.   #roadtrip  #dorrigo

The restaurant was not up to scratch. We ordered scotch filet steak at a high price only to not be able to eat it. The coffee facility in the room was not stocked and when asked for some there was none available.
