At nightfall walk down to the ocean and take in the sunset. After the sun has set sit and watch the ocean, and if you are lucky enough you might see the sea urchins light up the ocean waves. (There needs to be no moon, or very little light from the moon) As the waves roll over, the sea urchins come alive emitting electric blue/green colours that can be seen in the waves. Definitely one of the most amazing things I have ever seen!
I highly recommend walking to the lighthouse on the point. THis is the easternmost point in Mainland Australia, and it's beautiful. My favorite memory is walking up there and sitting on the grass watching the sea. I saw dolphins go in the evening. I spent a great deal of time up there, writing postcards, eating a picnic dinner, and enjoying the ocean air. The lighthouse is beautiful, as well. The lighthouse has quite a bit of historical significance, and is worth checking out.
Going to the Lighthouse is a must do for every visiter to Byron Bay. There are also high quality walking tracks which offers breathtaking views of the ocean from Byron Bay to the Queensland border. As well as being able to walk to the most eastern point in mainland Australia, you might even be lucky enough to see dolphins or whales playing in ocean.

Quite a large town (9000 people) which is, if you're coming from Brisbane/Gold Coast to Byron, an attractive stop off. In land from the Tweed Coast, the Pacific Highway cuts through the town. It's sugar-cane plantation country, the broad, flat fertile Tweed Valley supporting its growth, as well as plenty of other fruit (hence Tropical Fruit World, a mini 'theme' park based around, as the name suggests, tropical fruit, is found here). The Tweed River Regional Art Gallery in the town has an excellent reputation.
But it's the fact that the River Tweed flows through the town, providing great views of Mount Warning that is the highlight of Murwillumbah.
Byron Bay(Cavanbah which means 'Meeting Place') is
