Byron Bay
This seaside town is quite beautiful and situated in Northern New South Wales. It was known by the name of Cavvanbah in the "dream time" period of Australia's history and still has the essence of Aborigines as it was a place for finding marriage partners, trading goods and congregating to swap stories. It also is a home of some music festivals such as Splendor in the Grass and East Coast Blues & Roots Music Festival as well as a superb whale watching destination (the humpback whale's winter migration being the ultimate!).
Mt Tamborine
This resort is situated on a plateau well above and overlooking the Gold Coast. The development of magnificent resorts, hotels, spas and health and fitness retreats has created a fantastic tourism industry. It is heaven for a nature lover or a hiker as it offers beautiful trails into rainforest, waterfalls, cliffs and streams loaded with water life. A very popular place is Curtis Falls rainforest track, the Knoll. There is a bi-monthly market in the town on every 2nd Sunday.
Airlie Beach
A region in Whitsunday, Queensland, Australia, it is very near to the Great Barrier Reef. However, swimming there may not turn out to be a good idea due to stingers such as box jellyfish. The local council though, created a solution to this problem as they have built a protected lagoon that allows safer swimming anytime of the year. One of the best and busiest times to visit Airlie is during Blessing Of The Feet Festival that was started by Father Keith Felgate on Pentecost or Whit Sunday.
Blue Mountains
The Blue Mountains are a mountain range that gains its name from the blue haze. It is ranked as a place of World Heritage by UNESCO. There are 7 conservation reserves and national parks in the area of 10,000 sq km and the mountains rise to a height of 1,190 m above sea level. Among the highlights there are abundant waterfalls, cliffs, telltale signs of long-gone Aboriginal habitation and the famous blue haze.
Yamba
This town is situated near the Clarence River and is a lovely seaside holiday destination. It is a great place to get away from the crowds of the nearby towns, with wonderful accommodation to offer and the freshest seafood, the main industry here being fishing.
