Out & About

Discover the local area by bike! We have a selection available for use, but if you're after an e-bike or need additional bikes for your group, we've partnered with Freedom Machine to deliver bikes directly to our door. Their state-of-the-art electric bikes are a fun, eco-friendly and exhilarating way to explore the Byron area. They offer a range of options from brands such as VALLKREE (local Byron Bay vintage style bikes) and TREK Townies (one of the worlds biggest e-bike manufacturers). As well as their premium fleet they offer the option of standard rental bikes, such as a SCHWINN single speed cruiser. All rentals include a lock and helmet.

Step back in history and take a ride on the Byron Solar Train. The return service is provided 364 days a year (except Christmas Day) on the restored 1949-era two carriage heritage train, all powered by the sun! The three kilometre coastal track links Byron town centre with the North Beach precinct and takes 10 minutes one way or 25 minutes return from North Beach Station. Relax on vintage lounge seats in the first class carriage or chat to fellow passengers in coach class as you pass through rainforest, coastal wetlands and over the tea tree Belongil Creek, part of Cape Byron Marine Park. The train has luggage room for bikes, prams and surfboards.

Pack a picnic and enjoy a day at one of Byron's many beautiful beaches: North Beach, Belongil, The Pass, Wategos, Clarkes, Tallow (near Suffolk Park) or Byron's iconic Main Beach.

Byron Bay is a hub for talented creatives, and there's no better place to discover the region’s artisans than the colourful community markets. Here you'll find everything from crafts, clothes, homewares and art, to an extensive selection of exotic foods and coffee, baked goods, and local live music. Plus, face-painting, arts and crafts and other kids’ activities make it a fun day out for the whole family.
