Leaving from Brisbane we head to world famous Byron Bay. We will have two and a half hours here to check out the beach and go to Australia’s most Easterly Point at Cape Byron Lighthouse. From this magical viewpoint, whales, dolphins, sharks, rays, turtles and schools of fish may be seen, not to mention the rocky cliffs, rolling pacific ocean waves crashing in and the rugged coast extending for miles. Byron Bay is an alternative town so we make sure there is ample opportunity to have a good wander through the shops, cafes and galleries in the town center (yes it is on the beach for those who just want the sun).
Next we head through the Byron Hinterland with its rolling green hills, colorful locals and fruit plantations on our way to Nimbin Hippy Village. Nimbin is not your normal town. It was changed forever after the Aquarius Festival of 1972 and we stay for 1.25 hours so you can find out what it is all about. Enjoy chatting with the locals and sampling the great local produce at the cafes and restaurants. The museum and galleries are also well worth the trip to this lush part of the world. Notes:
