About Coffs Harbour

Coffs Harbour is located approximately halfway between Sydney and Brisbane, and it prides itself on its many attractions, natural beauty and quality of services.

With a population of approximately 68,000 in the Local Government Area, Coffs Harbour is also a major regional centre feeding a catchment population of over 200,000 people. This provides our city with all the benefits of 'big city' infrastructure whilst still retaining the convenience and atmosphere of a 'country town'.

Popular with people wanting to relocate to the coast and a better lifestyle, Coffs Harbour continues to grow at an exceptional rate, with a population projection of 80,000 by the year 2016.

The weather at Coffs Harbour is superb and has been assessed by Australia's peak scientific body, the CSIRO, as the best climate in Australia. In 2002 Coffs Harbour was awarded the Nations in Bloom Award as the Most Liveable City in the World for its size.
