MORE ABOUT THE POPULAR TOURIST DESTINATION

Byron Bay

Byron Bay, the Eastern-most point of Australia is a relatively small town with a population of approximately 9,000 people. The area around Byron Bay includes places like Mullumbimby, Bangalow and Brunswick Heads. The population of Byron Bay swells with the massive influx of tourists every year. Tourists add an additional 1.7 million people to the Byron Bay population making the town a hive of activity with many accommodation and tourism options.

Byron Bay is a magical spot renowned for its beautiful beaches, stunning hinterland and eclectic mix of people. One of the major attractions in Byron Bay is the lighthouse which sits proudly on Cape Byron. Captain Cook, who anchored off the point in 1770, named the area after Lord Byron who was also a broad traveller.The lighthouse walk offers stunning coastal views of Cape Byron and is an undulating 3.7km long. It's a loop track that is well worth the walk with open, light spaces overlooking the ocean (and the occasional whale or two) and secluded forested sections. Like its name, the walk takes in the Byron Bay lighthouse as just one of many sightseeing spots along the trail.
