3 days in Byron Bay Itinerary

Named after Lord Byron's grandfather, Byron Bay is not only famous as the easternmost point of Australia, but even more so as one of the liveliest vacation spots in the country.

Get out of town with these interesting Byron Bay side-trips: Coolangatta Beach (in Coolangatta) and Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary (in Currumbin). There's lots more to do: kick back and relax at Burleigh Heads Beach, let little ones run wild at Crystal Castle & Shambhala Gardens, enjoy the sea views from Cape Byron Lighthouse, and trek along Cape Byron Walking Track.
