Byron Bay aerial view

Byron Bay, Australia

Byron Bay is Australia's most glamorous beach town, where a white lighthouse crowns the easternmost point of the continent and looks out over world-class surf breaks, migrating humpbacks and long stretches of empty sand. Behind the beaches lie subtropical hinterland rainforest, celebrated wellness retreats and a produce-driven food scene that has made this corner of New South Wales a byword for barefoot luxury.
