Muttonbird Island
The Coffs Harbour's walk of discovery, highlighting the harbour's Aboriginal heritage won acclaim at the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards in March 2012. The Island attraction dominating the landscape at the Coffs Jetty and Marina area, known as Giidayn Mirral, added the national award for indigenous tourism to its state and regional accolades. It is a wonderful area featuring artwork of local Aboriginal artists and recognising the local Gumbaynggir heritage.
The National Park Discovery Ranger guided tours interpret the history and provide stories of the sacred site to all those that visit.
