Ok, so the drive into Byron Bay during school holidays isn't the greatest, a long slow line of traffic past all the accommodation and through town. But worth it once you get to the light house. A short scenic drive up the hill and you're there. Parking is a bit of a nightmare but somewhat regulated by the $7 fee... More

We stopped at the Byron resourt and Spa - which was a terrific, if slightly expensive hotel.

this is a place you must respect pick up your rubbish to keep this special place as beautiful as you found it

this beach just disappears into the horizon. impossible blueness. nice surf to swim in. happy dogs playing on beach. dolphins fishermen who gave free fresh fish.
