    Tips

    March 18, 2026

    Cape Byron State Conservation Area covers the headland just east of Byron Bay, protecting a mix of coastal rainforest, open grassland, and exposed cliffs along Australia’s easternmost point. The area is known for its ocean views, with regular sightings of dolphins and, in season, migrating whales offshore.

    There’s no entry fee to access the park itself, though parking fees may apply near the lighthouse. It’s a well-managed area with clear paths, lookouts, and facilities, but it can get busy, especially around the main viewpoints.
