Coffs Coast Regional Park
Consultation has concluded
Project Overview
There are currently no consultations underway regarding the Coffs Coast Regional Park.
Coffs Coast Regional Park was Gazetted in October 2003 and now includes 366 hectares of coastal lands, stretching over 27 kilometres from Coffs Harbour to Corindi.
The park protects some important natural and cultural values and provides numerous recreational opportunities for local and tourist visitors.
We have worked with local communities to create individual Masterplans for the various Reserves within the Regional Park, within the guidelines of the Coffs Coast Regional Park Plan of Management.
Coffs Coast Regional Park Trust Board is responsible for the care, control and management of the Park. The implementation of park management is shared between the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service and the City of Coffs Harbour, on behalf of the Board. The Trust Board is appointed by the NSW Government and includes Aboriginal Elders, two elected Councillors from the City of Coffs Harbour, a NPWS representative and representatives of the wider local community.

What is a Regional Park?
Regional parks are lands reserved to protect and conserve areas in natural or modified landscapes which are suitable for sustainable public recreation and enjoyment. They offer open spaces for cultural and recreational activities (including dog walking in some locations) which may not be permitted in national parks, state conservation areas or nature reserves.
Visit Coffs Harbour Regional Park for more information.
The Regional Park is a top spot for fishing, surfing and birdwatching. You’ll find great picnic areas, children's playgrounds, plus beaches with off-leash dog zones.
Explore undulating dunes, rainforest pockets, tranquil lakes, inviting parklands and charming coastal towns along the coastal walk and discover majestic headlands ideal for whale watching and taking in sweeping views of Solitary Islands Marine Park.
