This former New South Wales whaling station turned tourist town is still strongly influenced by its more recent bohemian past, when hippie lifestyles flourished. Bongos and didgeridoos sound in parks, sarongs and dreadlocks are sported and vegetarian restaurants abound. Set foot on the most easterly point on the Australian mainland at Cape Byron Lighthouse or simply stroll between beaches and bars. « less
