Enjoy the perfect holiday at Port Macquarie.

Port Macquarie is a town which was established in convict times and, as such, has a strong historical bent - providing interesting buildings and relics for the history buff - while it also plays host to great beaches for surfing and fishing, an excellent local museum and a selection of walking tracks.

There's also a koala hospital in Port Macquarie, providing shelter and support for Australia's most beloved native animal.

If unusual modes of transport are your thing, take a camel ride along the beach near Port Macquarie and experience the landscape from a unique point of view.
