To get the most of Byron Bay and the nature that is offered, a tour is the best option. When you prefer to see the area on your own, seek out Cape Byron Walking Track, a 3.7 km loop that circles Cape Byron Lighthouse and takes you through the rainforest and up along the coastal cliffs. There is even a self-guided tour app that can be downloaded to your phone to provide information and tips as you walk the loop. Be sure to keep an eye out for wild animals and marine life, like whales, as you walk. Finish your walk by climbing the lighthouse for even more incredible views.
