Byron Bay

The Sanctuary Byron Bay is located in a beautiful resort town at the most easterly point of the Australian continent, which is famous for its pristine beaches, sub-tropical rainforests and majestic mountain ranges.

Byron Bay’s location in a sub-tropical temperate zone ensures pleasant weather all year around. Summers are warm and balmy and while winter nights can be cool, winter days are generally sunny and mild.

The Sanctuary’s location is no accident - Byron Bay has long been considered a place of healing by the local indigenous population, and is still well known as a place to rejuvenate, recharge and revitalise and heal.

Byron Bay is home to a diverse and creative outdoors focussed community, and the locals are known for their warmth, hospitality and laidback nature. A steady flow of visitors from all around the world creates a delightful melting pot of carefree beach lovers and surfers, backpackers, celebrities, entrepreneurs and luxury holidaymakers. The town itself has a relaxed casual feel, with a unique and exquisite assortment of cafes, restaurants and boutiques - many showcasing local fashion and artisanal products - gives Byron a thriving cosmopolitan vibe. The surrounding region is home to rolling hills of farmland, pristine rainforests and waterfalls and some lovely towns and villages, which make wonderful day trips for sight seeing, shopping, markets, cafes, swimming and nature walks.
