Byron Bay

New South Wales

WOULD YOU LIKE TO LIVE A BOHEMIAN LIFESTYLE IN AUSTRALIA?
YOU WILL FIND IT IN BYRON BAY

A two-hour drive from Brisbane, north of the State of New South Wales, lies the small coastal town of Byron Bay.

With a population of just 7,000, you’ll find an idyllic and relaxing atmosphere in Byron, where most people know each other and almost everyone gets around by bicycle. The conservation of the natural landscape is so important here that in 2007 the State decided to stop real estate development to preserve its beauty.

East of the city, you will find the magnificent Byron Bay Lighthouse monitoring an ocean with some of the best waves for surfing.
