It has been some years since I was last in Byron Bay. I haven’t been since I was a lad. OK, that’s probably not strictly true. It is most likely not that long at all since my last visit, meaning I wasn’t quite a lad. But I’m still 19 in my mind, if definitely not in my body, so you see why I’m easily confused.
Byron Bay is located about 480 miles north of Sydney and is was a quaint little beach town with a somewhat hippy vibe. The headland, Cape Byron, home to the lighthouse, is the easternmost point of mainland Australia.
