Byron Bay is situated in the North of New South Wales.  It  is quite touristy but we still managed to have a lot of fun.  At night all the tourists seem to dissapear and all the hippies come out to play.  It has a great relaxed atmoshphere in the evening.

Byron Bay Night
Byron Bay Day
Dolphins are common in the waters around Byron, spotted mainly in the early morning
By night all the hippies come out with Bongo drums, spinning poi(chains with pads soaked in paraffin) and giving out free tchae.  Its a really chilled out atmosphere.
By day Byron Bay is a surfer & body Boarder paradise.  When we were there, there was a concert on so Byron was particularly busy which meant the waters were stowed with people.  One day I'll get to try surfing.
