Luke Young • May 26, 2022

Coffs Harbour and surrounds is known for their amazing markets, occurring weekly and monthly, along with seasonal night markets as well!


We’ve compiled our top 3 markets picks for those soon to visit Coffs!


Harbourside Markets

We love Harbourside Markets, not only because they are walking distance from The Observatory, but also because the wonderful and eclectic mix of stalls and products available!

From clothing & jewellery through to plants, art, collectibles and more, there’s also delicious food available as well. Nothing beats a Sunday perusing the stalls in the sunshine.

When: Every Sunday 8am to 2pm at the Jetty Foreshore


Made with Love Markets

The Made with Love Markets are the biggest dedicated handmade market on the Coffs Coast. Due to the size and nature of the market, it only runs 4 times with 2 more dates happening this year (see below for details).

This market celebrates the creativity and talent of the residents of the Coffs Coast and is definitely worth a visit!

When: Sunday 28th August and Sunday 27th November, Park Beach Plaza Middle Level Car park.


Coramba Village Market

After a market just outside of Coffs? Enjoy a day trip out to the hinterland and stop by the Coramba Village Markets!

Coramba is a quaint village 20 minutes outside of Coffs and their market has a fun village vibe to it. There’s plenty to see and do, with activities, market stalls, live music and lots more.

When: 4th Sunday of every month, 10am – 2pm, Gale Street, Coramba.


If you’re planning a holiday in Coffs Harbour and you love a good market, then make sure you plan your trip to coincide with one (or all!) of these markets. Need accommodation? We can help!
