Is Byron Bay worth visiting?

Solo travel

Byron Bay holds a special place in my heart; it's one of my favorite cities in the world. Its vibrant surfing culture, yoga scene, and laid-back hippy vibes create an incredible atmosphere. I always feel safe exploring the town, meeting new people, and immersing myself in breathtaking sunsets. Cheeky Monkey is a favorite spot of mine for enjoying drinks and dancing the night away!

I really loved Byron Bay! The vibe’s, the nature and the people are amazing in Byron Bay. I traveled up The East Coast in October and Byron Bay was by far my favorite place. If you are there you have to walk all the way up to the lighthouse. If you are going to the Lighthouse during sunset you could have the chance seeing wildlife like koalas or kangaroos.

About Me

Hi! I'm Flo🙋🏽‍♀️ 28 years old from Uruguay, South America currently travelling the world:) For the past two years, I've been living and working in Australia. I'm easygoing and friendly, love animals, the beach, surfing, meditating and connecting with inspiring people around the world. I'm very respectful of other people’s time, points of view and space. I’d love to get to know the local culture, maybe cook together (I'm vegetarian) or just share some time over a cup of coffee! I’ve been volunteering in Hawaii for the past two months and now I'm in Europe hoping to connect with some amazing souls and get to explore the mountains, the beaches and the beautiful cities/small towns around here!
