FAREWELL BYRON, HELLO COFFS! It was time to head to another dream destination: Coffs Harbour, 231 kms away on the M1, a fairly easy two-and-a-half-hour drive. There was a bit of chitter-chatter between drivers on the way down, and everyone was excited when we reached our destination, the BIG 4 Park Beach Holiday Park (also known as Coffs Coast Holiday Park), writes Leanne O’Neill.

Relax, enjoy, rejuvenate

Are you and your family after a holiday? Then this is the park for you. This park screams family fun with all the recreation a family needs within the park. From the moment you step foot into BIG4 Park Beach Holiday Park, the infectious spirit of holiday fun sweeps you away. Located along the breathtaking Coffs Coast and nestled beside the picturesque main beach and coastal creek reserve, it’s the quintessential family beachside getaway.

Resort-Style Pool

Dive into endless amusement at the resort-style pool, where you’ll find yourself giggling beneath the towering tipping bucket, zipping down thrilling slides, or unwinding on a sun-soaked lounger. Youngsters or the young at heart can enjoy the mini golf, table tennis, one of the two playgrounds and the TV room. When it’s time to hit the waves, simply stroll across the road to the serene, patrolled beach or tranquil creek for a daily dose of surfing, stand-up paddle boarding or kayaking.

Shaded Campsites amid Tropical Gardens

Indulge your taste buds at the poolside cafe. Relax in one of the 56 cabins, which offer several different grades of accommodation and can accommodate different family sizes. Or set up your caravan or tent at a shaded site within the lush tropical gardens.
