Likewise, you could head North along Hearnes Lake beach and Woolgoolga Back Beach to Woolgoolga. There is a challenging set of steps to the headland and the whale watching platform, or skirt around the back of the town via the car park to avoid the climb. Woolgoolga has markets on a Saturday morning, and Eat St. event about 4 times a year, Curryfest. But it's also a great place to do a bit of shopping or have lunch etc.

Sealy Lookout has great panoramic views of Coffs Harbour; also a recently installed nature adventure park. Bruxner Park Drive is also a beautiful drive rising above the banana slopes and through the forests to Bucca Road which takes you back onto Solitary Islands Drive and the Pacific Highway.

Plan a day out with a stop off in Bellingen for lunch or morning coffee and a walk around the heritage main street. Then drive the beautiful Waterfall Way to Dorrigo. The Rainforest Centre has beautiful views over the rainforest; and then you can wander into the depths of the forest to a magical waterfall.
While you're in Dorrigo, check out the Dangar Waterfalls.
