Byron
Bay is a former whaling station that is now a very popular holiday
resort renowned for its magnificent surfing beaches. The lush
and beautiful countryside surrounding the town was opened up
by cedar-cutters in the late 1800s and is now devoted to dairying,
cattle, pigs and tropical fruits.
Visitor
Information for Byron Bay and
environs. Includes maps, camping tips, surfing guide, history,
regional info, and more. Cape Byron is Australia's most easterly
point, located in the northern rivers district of NSW.
The
town is partly protected from the sea by Cape Byron, a rocky
promontory 107m high and the continent's most easterly point.
One of the most attractive and powerful lighthouses in Australia
stands on the cape, beaming its light more than 40km out to
sea. A walking trail leads to the tip of the cape, on the way
visiting the lighthouse and providing fine coastal views. A
ramp on the southern side of the cape is used by hang gliders
who often soar overhead. Good views of humpback whales on their
migration up the coast to Hervey Bay can be seen from the cape
in July and on their return in September.
Beaches
can be found on either side of the town and there are numerous
rocky headlands providing perfect vantage points and ideal fishing
platforms. Some local points and beaches are considered by surfers
to be some
of the best surfing beaches in the state.
