Port Macquarie

Port Macquarie is a friendly seaside town on the mid north coast of NSW and a good stopping off point for backpackers travelling between Sydney and Brisbane. The YHA hostel is only 200m from the main beach and close to local shops, cafes and pubs. Small, cosy and clean with a friendly, funky atmosphere. Backpackers get free use of hostel boogie boards, fishing rods and the BBQ.

"A fantastic stay - everything perfect! Loved the BBQ and friendly staff."
