BYRON BAY | S 28.64° / E 153.60°
There’s more to Byron Bay than the awe-inspiring beaches, but there’s no denying those golden shores remain its main draw. Australia’s easternmost point is home to fewer than 10,000 full-time residents but attracts nearly two million visitors each year, a number that’s sure to rise as more people learn about its natural splendor and killer food scene. Few places are truly for everyone, but it’s difficult to imagine anyone failing to find something to love about Byron Bay. - TheDiscoverer.com
GO BYRON BAY
December-February. Warm but rainy, Byron Bay is genuinely pleasant year-round. The water tends to be warmest at the beginning of the year, however, which means more opportunity to get your feet wet. The occasional sun shower is nothing to be afraid of in a spot this gorgeous. - TheDiscoverer.com
BYRON BAY DISCOVERIES
Anyone who believes in charging rose quartz and amethysts on a full moon is more or less obligated to visit the Crystal Castle, home to the largest natural crystals in the world. It’s a calming place even for those who don’t consider themselves the least bit New Age, with striking beauty at every turn: an ancient amethyst cave, a mural called Wings to Eternity, and the botanical Shambhala Gardens all offer their own kind of serenity. - TheDiscoverer.com | @jesslynbelinda
