Description

The Big Pineapple is, literally, the biggest manmade pineapple in the world, located in Bathurst. The fiberglass, stell and concrete structure stands 16.5m high, comprising 3 floors with a magnificent view from the top all the way to the coast.

The structure features a curio and gift shop selling all kinds of pineapple related products such as jams and juices, t-shirts, and curios and puzzles and gifts. On the middle floor, there is a static display about the pineapple industry that flourishes in the Bathurst area.

This wel-known landmark is an ideal spot for tourists to visit. Situated on a pineapple experimental farm, there are lovely expanses of lawn for children to run freely. There is also a restaurant offering delicious choices of food and drinks in a historical stone settler building.
