Pet-Friendly Accommodation in Coffs Harbour

• 1. Go shopping

  Whether it's you or your pet in need of retail therapy, it doesn't matter at Moonee Beach Shopping Plaza. Moonee Beach, 14km north of Coffs Harbour's town centre, is becoming known as a pet-friendly destination. Dogs are allowed inside the modern shopping plaza, which has a mini food court where some vendors even specialise in doggy treats. Right outside is a big, dog-friendly beach where you and your pooch can play off the leash to your hearts' content.

• 2. Get a perm

  Treating yourself to a PETicure (sorry, couldn't resist!) at Maggie's Dog Cafe, Shop and Salon is a unique luxury offered to dogs and owners in Coffs Harbour. This busy little shop and cafe serves delicious coffee and food for both humans and dogs, in addition to offering dog grooming, pet sitting, and luxury spa treatments. Leave your dog in good hands at doggy day care or the grooming spa while you explore the shops and sites nearby, or book yourself in for a relaxing session too!

• 3. Go bananas

  For a fun day out for the whole family, head to the Big Banana Fun Park, where you can play mini golf, go tobogganing and ice skating, play a round of laser tag, or splash about at the biggest water park on the Northern NSW Coast. Don't forget to visit the famous ice creamery for a refreshing banana-based treat, or relax under the atrium with a chocolate-covered banana, a doggy treat, and a water bowl.

• 4. Have a drink

  With a huge outdoor seating area, food, live music, incredible views, and a welcoming dog-friendly policy, the fully-licensed Bluebottles Brasserie on Beach Street is a top choice for pet owners to enjoy a drink in the sun and a delicious meal without having to leave their pet behind. Their fine-dining all-day menu features local produce incorporated into contemporary dishes that have garnered Bluebottles a range of culinary awards over the years.

• 5. Go walking

  Surrounded by pristine beaches and beautiful nature, there's no shortage of pet-friendly public places to enjoy around Coffs Harbour. Throw a ball up and down beautiful Emerald Beach, which is quieter than the central beaches and permits dogs off-leash. Or explore the on-leash dog-friendly areas around Bellinger River and Woolgoolga Lake, keeping an eye out for local wildlife.
