Coffs Harbour’s and indeed Australia’s most famous icon would have to be THE BIG BANANA.
This giant structure modeled on a prize winning banana is probably the most photographed object in Australia. At any time of the day cameras are clicking away - individuals, couples, honeymooners, small groups, families, whole coach loads of people - all recording their visit to The Big Banana. Many are returning with children and grandchildren to continue a family tradition. Frequently the comment has been; “The Big Banana is not as big as I remember”. Well, it is still 11 metres long, 5 metres high, and 2.4 metres wide but the surrounding developments have lessened its impact.
Located just north of Coffs Harbour on the Pacific Highway, 565 kilometres north of Sydney and 450 kilometres south of Brisbane, The Big Banana is always a favourite stopping place with people of all ages and has been for over 30 years.
With fun rides, educational tours and exhibitions, recreational activities, a variety of food experiences as well as several retail outlets, The Big Banana is 'A FAMILY PLACE - SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE'.
