FUN. FREEDOM. ADVENTURE
Byron is the most easterly point of Australia, it has a lot of amazing beaches and is a great place to surf, especially if you are a beginner! Not so much the hippy town it once was, nowadays Byron is a popular holiday spot for Aussies and international tourists, as well as a few celebrities you may spot around town. Catering to people of all budgets it really is a must stop destination on the East Coast.
BYRON BAY NEED TO KNOW
THINGS TO DO?
Loads! Kayak with dolphins, skydive from 15,000ft, learn to surf, chill on the beach, head up to the lighthouse on the iconic coastal walk, enjoy the chilled out nightlife and of course the famous day trip to nearby hippy town Nimbin. See all the stuff to do in Byron at the bottom of this page.
GETTING THERE?
Greyhound and Premier bus both stop in the centre of Byron, either catch the overnight bus from Sydney travelling North or it is just a short ride from Brisbane or Gold Coast if you are heading South.
If you have your own vehicle check in advance it isn't a public holiday because parking can be tricky at times.
ACCOMMODATION?
There are plenty of hostels to choose from in Byron but be aware you need to book in advance during busy periods, the same goes for the campsites if that is what you fancy. Nomads, Backpackers Inn and Wake Up are some of the top rated Byron hostels, book here.
OUR TOP TIPS?
Wake up early for the walk up to the lighthouse, see the dolphins playing in the bay before catching an amazing sunrise at the most eastern point of the Aussie mainland.
ANYTHING ELSE?
Be aware, some people go to Byron and end up staying for a lot longer than planned. It is a fantastic little town with a great vibe. Most of all, enjoy it.
