During the 1920s, Sawtell was referred to as “the Manly of the North”. The story of Coffs Harbor, as broadcasted by Mr. P. J. McNamara from the Great White Train, included this statement:<\/p>\n
With an ideal climate and an equitable temperature\u00a0 involving the absence of hot nights, it is an ideal resort\u00a0 for tourists, with is miles of golden sands. As a winter health resort, Coffs and the neighboring towns, with<\/em> the<\/em> beaches, are unsurpassed and destined to become famous owing to their evenness of temperature, which makes them splendid winter resorts for invalids and justly entitles Coffs to be called the – “Manly of the North.” Nowhere in N.S.W. are there more beautiful beaches than about Coffs.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
