The Mid-North Coast of the Australian state of New South Wales stretches for some 300 km along the Pacific Ocean shoreline from Port Stephens (north of Newcastle) in the south to Coffs Harbour in the north and inland to Dorrigo and neighbouring towns. It is bordered by the Hunter Valley region to the south, by the Northern Rivers region to the north and New England to the west.

There are several railway stations on the Mid North Coast serviced by three trains; the Grafton, the Casino and the Brisbane XPT trains. Each run north and south once a day.
