Big Banana, Tourist attraction in Coffs Harbour, Australia
The Big Banana Fun Park contains a large walk-through banana structure surrounded by a banana plantation alongside multiple entertainment facilities and water rides.
American businessmen John Landi and John Enveoldson established the Big Banana in December 1964, creating Australia's first oversized roadside attraction.
Australia Post recognized the significance of this roadside attraction by featuring it on commemorative 50-cent postage stamps released in 2007.
The park remains open every day except Christmas, offering various passes that grant access to attractions such as laser tag, toboggan rides, and water slides.
Within its 18-hectare grounds, visitors can experience Australia's largest indoor giant slide and the biggest water park between Sydney and Gold Coast.
