Great little museum but very small but the cinema room was a great trek back in time. Free to attend so give a small donation as the staff were so friendly and helpful its a must to do in Coffs Harbour

Very nice and quaint place! We were the only ones when we visited, so the staff person gave us a little guided tour around the place with lots of cool info. Very friendly and inviting atmosphere, not to mention all free! Great place to check out if youd like to learn about some history behind Coffs Harbour.

Great museum, it might be a little small, but I think its better than a lot of big museums as its cozy, has some great historical items, and the staff there are very friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place to tourists coming to coffs.

Wonderful rain forest national park, very close to Coffs Harbour. Accessible by vehicle only. 4WD necessary for some roads through the park, though Bruxner Park Road is passable by all traffic and passes through the outskirts of the park. Stop by Vincents Tree just beside the road, though there are equivalent or better trees throughout the park that are both alive (Vincent Tree is long dead but still standingand equally as impressive. Turn off the road at Swans Road to drive into the park (4WD necessary, can be impassable in the wettest of weather), by crossing Bucca Bucca Creek and continuing. Parts of the park can also be accessed (on footby trails starting just behind the Forest Sky Pier.

Its a small museum for now, as the lady at the reception said that the council is building a bigger building to exhibit all their collection. The exhibit now is only a small collection, yet worth visiting.The Tasman theatre was cool with vintage movie posters. The gift shop attached to the reception is would go unnoticed, but worth looking through it. I will definitely go back to visit the new building when its ready.
