- Swim at Tallow Beach
Tallow Beach is a deserted sandy stretch that extends for 7km south from Cape Byron. This is the place to avoid the crowds, much of the beach is backed by Arakwal National Park. Be sure to pack your camera because this beach gives you many moments for the ‘gram!

- Peruse the Byron Farmers Market
Both a market and a nod to the strength of the local community, this weekly market has a wide variety of mainly organic stalls, with both fresh produce and a wide array of local products. Visit early in the morning and hang with the locals for great coffee and breakfast, then linger for live music.
