Harrington follows the Manning River with a long breakwater which provides
great fishing, and the relaxed seaside
lifestyle is a welcome escape from the frantic pace of urban life.
The
northern arm of the Manning River reaches the ocean at Harrington and the
expansive views from Pilot Hill Lookout are breathtaking. The graves atop
this hill attest to the pilots whose job it was to guide the boats over
the bar.

Nearby Crowdy Head is certainly the jewel in the Manning Valley Crown.
Crowdy Head is a quaint fishing village located just 7km from Harrington.
The lighthouse perched high on the headland provides exceptional views and
is easily accessible on a sealed road. The seafood co-op at Crowdy Head is
a seafood lover's delight with the fresh catch of the day a tempting
treat.
Crowdy Beach sweeps in a long arc through to Kylie's Beach in
the National Park. Accommodation at Harrington and Crowdy Head includes
motels, units, caravan parks and holiday cottages.

village will reveal some fabulous views inland to the near mountains, and
on a clear day, three headlands up and down the coast!
