What Makes This Area Unique
Australia's alternative lifestyle capital — beaches, hinterland, and creative community
Byron Bay and its surrounding communities have evolved from surf town to Australia's premier alternative lifestyle and wellness destination. The beaches are extraordinary, the hinterland is lush, and the community attracts creative professionals, artists, and entrepreneurs from across the country.
Living here: Byron offers an extraordinary natural setting and creative community, but the cost of living has skyrocketed. Housing affordability is a serious challenge, especially for younger residents. Tourism pressure is intense in peak season.
