Port Macquarie-Hastings Tanács

Port Macquarie-Hastings Essentials

Port Macquarie-Hastings combines maritime history with significant wildlife conservation efforts. The region features the 1879 Tacking Point Lighthouse and the world’s first hospital dedicated solely to the care and conservation of wild koalas. Inland, the Timbertown Heritage Village recreates a 19th-century timber-getting settlement. Natural landmarks include the 40-metre Rawson Falls in Boorganna Nature Reserve and various coastal lookouts such as Laurieton and Gaol Point, offering views across the Tasman Sea and the Hastings River estuary.
