Coffs Harbour, Big Banana and Dorrigo
Description
Fly out of Coffs Harbour, south along the coast and then inland to Dorrigo Plateau. Contrast the rugged bushland in the valleys on your right with the lush rolling famlands of the plateau on your left.
The Big Banana was built in 1964 to promote a roadside fruit stall and now hosts the largest water theme park between Sydney (NSW) and the Gold Coast in Queensland.
