Blame it on the Rain – Life around Byron Bay

Blame it on the Rain – Life around Byron Bay

Author(s): Valerie Morton

Location(s): Byron Bay

Genre(s): Travelogue

Era(s): Contemporary

Exotic foliage. Crystal-clear water. Empty white beaches. Bright-blue skies. Endless sunshine.
Northern New South Wales is a big, fat, subtropical, coconut-and turmeric-laced cliche of heavenliness.
Where else can you surf with dolphins in the middle of winter, climb to the most easterly point in Australia to watch migrating whales, hop on a naked-activist bike ride, and honour the Stillness of Being, all before lunch?
But what’s it like to live here all year round? Is paradise all it’s cracked up to be?

Tales and Photos from in and around Byron Bay
