Sawtell Beach and Headlands

A sunning costal spot just south of Coffs Harbour that's perfect for whale watching in winter and surfing, swimming and sunbaking come summer.

Overview

To the north of Bongil Bongil National Park is Sawtell Beach and headlands, where the coastal views are worth a visit any time of the year but are most popular during whale watching season. You can view the humpback migration from a grassy picnic spot as the headlands allow both northern and southern views. Just ten kilometres from Coffs Harbour, the beachside town is also a popular spot for a swim or surf. While you're here, check out Sailors Bay at low tide, when you'll be able to reach the tidal rock pools.
