Captain James Cook named Cape Byron after John Byron, circum navigator of the world and grandfather of the poet, Lord Byron.

Byron Bay is famous for it’s anti-development culture. Unlike Surfers Paradise and it’s sky scrapers, Byron Bay is a community determined to live in a more natural and close to nature environment. I love driving to Byron Bay, it is an escape from the metropolitan hussle and bussle lifestyle. Don’t forget to visit the Saturday markets they are very popular with stall holders from the local area and certainly give you the impression of what life is like in Byron!
