Immerse Yourself in Indigenous Cultural Activities on the Coffs Coast!
If a visit to Coffs Harbour is on the cards, we highly suggest immersing yourself in the rich Indigenous culture we have here.
The mid north coast is home to the Gymbaynggirr people, who have occupied the area since the Yuludarla or The Dreaming.
The Gumbaynggirr people shared their land with other nations, due to their land being so rich with food and other resources. Because of this, they were traditionally known as the ‘sharing people’.
Below are some fantastic cultural experiences you can undertake when on the Coffs Coast.
Wajaana Yaam Gumbaynggirr Adventure Tours
Running tours in 3 stunning Coffs Coast locations, the tours take place on the homelands of the Gumbaynggirr Tribal Nation, ensuring you have a 100% authentic cultural experience.
Giingan Gumbaynggirr Cultural Experience by Bularri Muurlay Nyanggan Aboriginal Corporation
The Giingan experience takes place at an important cultural site, where guests enjoy the 360 views from ‘Niigi Niigi’ (Sealy Lookout) and get to learn about their culture through stories, song, language and the use of native plants.
Yarrawarra Aboriginal Cultural Centre
This property is situated in the homelands of the Garby Elders and the Gumbaynggirr people, surrounded by beautiful beaches, stunning bushland and abundant wildlife. Not only does the centre include an exceptional Indigenous art gallery, but it also has a bush tucker café, cultural programs and more!
We encourage you to connect and share with their stories and knowledge while visiting Gumbaynggirr Country.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Coffs Coast soon!
