Coffs Harbour - Docking

Yachts can anchor in the inner or outer anchorage, or take a berth in the marina (depending on availability). Photo courtesy of SY Estrellita.

Arrival at night is reasonably straightforward with huge blue leading lights to line up.

The inner anchorage (red star) is more protected in general from the swell and is between the old pier and the marina.

The outer anchorage (yellow star) is anywhere outside of the old pier including close up against the breakwater to the SE. In general, it can be pretty roly in the outer anchorage. There are two (free of charge) mooring buoys between the old wooden jetty and the breakwater of the inner harbour.

This is a very easy place to walk and bus to get various supplies. There are many small restaurants in the marina area itself and a 5-minute walk outside the marina. If you want quick groceries, there is a small IGA close by and a very large Cole’s supermarket further away towards town.

There are beautiful beaches on either side of the marina with lots of activity. The small hill overlooking the marina is a good walk.

    We had a very good experience last year with Coffs Harbour Galvanising who did our anchor chain. The service was excellent and the price very competitive. Office number 02 6652 4667 and Kevin 0419 129831.
