Cape Byron Headland Reserve

Attraction - Aboriginal NSW, Building and Structure, Educational, Historic Site, Maritime, Museum, Natural, Visitor Information Centre

Cape Byron Headland Reserve is NPWS State Conservation Area managed by a local trust, the Cape Byron Trust. It comprises spectacular sea cliffs, rare and beautiful coastal vegetation, spectacular beaches and a high quality walking track system which offer spectacular views of both the surrounding Marine Park and the hinterland.

Situated on the most Easterly point of mainland Australia, the Reserve is a popular tourist destination. The Cape Byron Lighthouse and light-keepers cottages, built in 1901, are an outstanding feature of the Reserve. All the buildings are listed on the national estate register, and offer visitors an insight into what life may have been like in the days of the Lighthouse Keepers.

Aboriginal culture is alive and well at Cape Byron. The Cape is very special to the Bundjalung of Byron Bay (Arakwal) Aboriginal people. For thousands of years, Aboriginal people have maintained a connection with the headland they call Walgun - "the shoulder". It is part of their Dreaming, and is also a place of ceremony, learning and inspiration. An Indigenous Land Use Agreement recognises the traditional rights of the Arakwal people to these lands, and ensures that Arakwal people maintain an active role in land management on the Reserve.

Accommodation is available at the historic "Lighthouse Keepers Cottages". For holiday rental inquiries phone The Professionals Real Estate Agency on 02 6685 6552.

Tours of the Cape Byron Lighthouse operate on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the year and additional Saturday tours during school holidays. Bookings can be made by contacting the Cape Byron Trust on 02 6685 5955.
