Spectacular views of Newcastle and its beaches. Brilliant design; from just a hill it has been transformed into a regular walking trek while giving a great tribute to the Australian WW1 diggers! Not to be missed..

There are monthly markets held as well as the weekly Saturday morning Farmers market where you will find local produce.
I love Byron so much. It’s getting quite commercial now and the prices are up there, but I definitely love the vibe and how everything is centrally located , so I recommend getting accomodation near by so you don’t really need to touch the car unless you’re driving to surf spots. I would avoid going during schoolies and school holidays to avoid the chaos .

20 Miles Of At Least 98-foot-high Dunes.
A big stretch of sands offering multiple possibilities. You can just sit and relax, draw figures and sketches in the wet sand area with kids, hire and go on quad biking in the dunes, hire 'sun-board' and have the dry surfing fun or can just jump into the waters - the waves are enticing.

Thank you to the volunteers for their informative free tour of the Koala Hospital and its resident koalas, past and present. Great work volunteers. Well worth a visit.

Irukandji Shark & Ray Encounters is an amazing experience of swimming and interacting with Sharks and Rays. The owners are passionate and dedicated to our Ocean's conservation and Marine Science. Every visitor can learn about the ocean depths and step outside their comfort zone by diving in with these amazing ambassador animals. Once you have experienced these majestic creatures individual personalities, you will have the confidence to take the next step and dive Looking Glass, a popular Nelson Bay shark dive site. Wondering about the name Irukandji? The Irukandji Jellyfish may be the most deadly thing in the world! Coming soon you will see them with your own eyes and learn about the Jellyfish blooms that are currently taking over the ocean like never in history. If you are after an out of this world experience that can be shared with the whole family (even tiny babies get a wetsuit and booties for a swim with the Sharks) then Irukandji is your next adventure waiting to happen.
Staff were all super friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend paying the extra to get in the water for the feedings so you can be up close and personal with these amazing creatures.

This lighthouse is sitting on the top of the hill on the outskirts of Byron Bay township with a great circuit walking trail that goes up and around the entire headland. Also a great place to spot whales off the headland during migration season This walk is moderate from the main Byron Bay Beach with amazing views or you can park closer and walk up! “Jonique Life” Follow our journey around Australia on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube as we highlight wonderful experiences and magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

This is a lovely walk with some stairs, but the pathway is quite easy to manage. I would recommend early morning or late afternoon to take this walk. Early morning as the sun comes up is beautiful and with the chance to see dolphins around the river/Town Beach or possibly whales from the headlands....don't miss this and think of the benefits of the exercise!
