Byron Bay- Music and Arts

by grantravel - last update: Jan 12, 2006

Most Eastern Point of Australia

Cape Byron
Byron Bay is one of Australia's most popular destinations and has been a magnet for people seeking alternative lifestyles since the 60's. The beauty of the beaches and hinterland make it a perfect place to visit.

The many beaches around Byron Bay offer clean warm water and the chance to see dolphins regularly and whales May through October.

Alot of people say that Byron has changed dramatically over the past 10-20 years, maybe so, but I still believe it has got an atmosphere like nowhere else I've been. I have to admit it has got alot of tourists going through this place, maybe it didn't have as many 20 years ago.
