Byron Bay Farmers Market
The Thursday morning farmers market at Butler Street Reserve draws the best of the Northern Rivers produce — the hinterland's subtropical climate enables a diversity of fruit and vegetables unavailable in the rest of Australia.
- 2
Bangalow Heritage Village
Bangalow, 15 km inland, is the hinterland's most charming heritage village — the main street of timber heritage buildings hosts galleries, antique shops, and award-winning restaurants in a peaceful pastoral setting.
- 3
Byron Bay Arts & Industry Estate
The industrial estate on the edge of town houses Byron Bay's creative industries — design studios, ceramics workshops, and Byron Bay Brewery are clustered together in an unexpected concentration of creative businesses.

Epicentre Market
The Byron Bay market held at Butler Street on the first Sunday of the month is one of Australia's most famous — thousands of visitors browse stalls of arts, crafts, and food in a relaxed, festive atmosphere.

Mullumbimby Arts Precinct
Mullumbimby, the largest town in Byron Shire, has a thriving arts community — the main street galleries show local artists working in the landscape and community traditions of the Northern Rivers.

Suffolk Park Beach
Suffolk Park is Byron Bay's quiet residential neighbour — a long beach popular with locals rather than tourists, with consistent surf and the relaxed, unhurried atmosphere that originally drew people to Byron Bay.
