Another thing to watch out for around rock pools mainly down where you are & south of there from memory are blue ring octopus’s… they are very small & can be deadly so keep an eye on the kids!

Don’t need to explain yourself on your on feedback guys, hey it’s your channel. Myself being Aussie had the same reaction about Bora Bora… went there thinking it would be beautiful but was a shit hole!! ❤ to you and ya fam.

Everything cool

So good to see your travels your children are so lucky they will never see the world the same again they are very rich already happy traveling

Shame about the crime rate and the ferals on ice. Wot a dump of a town

Yes ma’am!! Garlic salt club for life!!

With your families obvious love of waterfalls its a real pity you didn't visit Wallaman Falls while you were in Queensland. Australia's highest single drop permanent waterfall at 268m (879ft) and only 51km inland from Ingham.

The Sunshine Coast is heaps better than the Gold Coast. Not as busy, not as touristy.

Welcome to Australia's East coast. You guys say you are exploring the east coast but only seem to be doing the northern coastline (QLD)! Ok, so I know you been to Sydney, but you have to explore south - ALL of NSW. The southern coastline is FAR better than QLD - albeit a little cooler. It is often beset with stunning weather and clean clear water which is more than I can say for QLD. If you want some tips on where to go and explore, reply, for the list is LONG....But don't make the colossal mistake of thinking QLD is better than NSW before trying out the places on my list.

so weird that Australia content here is 95% Perth , Adill Laid, Melb, Sidney and Brizzy?? Fact is those 5 locations make up less than 1% of all Australia Get off the beach, the black stuff, the Grid, get remote and see what Oz REALLY IS!!!

"so where did you catch your first wave?" "I was just a toddler, flew halfway across the planet to surf a break called The Pass at Byron Bay in Australia, ive got a video of it" 😂 🌊 👍

I grew up in Hervey Bay from a fishing family going back to the late 1800s. Good to see you highlight my hometown 👍

I was gifted one of these and we've tried a few times to fly it but it's head is too heavy unless it's an extremely windy day.. you guys picked well and seemed to make it look effortless.

As a born Aussie I couldn't be prouder of my country, which is practically the same size as the US but millions less people. Unfortunately, love took me from Australia and I now reside in Switzerland; even though Switzerland is a beautiful country, the Swiss are far from being friendly, not like Australia, where the song goes; I AM, YOU ARE, WE ARE AUSTRALIAN. I understand when Americans come to Australia and do not want to leave, I wouldn't want to live in the US, where every fool can have a gun and with luck, you too can be shot by brainless fools who believe that a gun gives them the right to kill others. I was a huge America lover in the 70's and wanted nothing more than to marry an American, but as fate wanted it, I never got to live in the US and maybe thats for the best, as everythig happens for a reason!

We love visiting Byron Bay and find it to be a magical spot in particular surfing at The Pass. Been there many times with our boys over the years. Byron has also become a celebrity hotspot to live.

I live on the Sunshine Coast and love Noosa too but yes unfortunately during the schools holidays it's always way too busy. The national park is gorgeous. Gympie Terrace in Noosaville, along the river, is a great spot for families too. Hope you also get to see the Sunshine Coast hinterlands such as Montville, Mary Cairncross and Maleny. Beautiful spots too. Kenilworth is cool too. Best donuts there.

glad you loved our Byron shire. Our beautiful home.

Wonderful video.

Beautiful proud parent moment both children surfing

I hope all this vlogging and editing isn't ruining your trip!

I believe 'gelati' is the plural of 'gelato'. So, you would be getting 'gelati' for your family. :)

This is the epitomy of "Living the Dream" the surfing by the kids was incredible to see plus the waterfall, not to forget lunch, great video (again) and I hope you did some celebrating for Australia Day, love it 🥰🦘🦘🦘

Watching the kids riding waves. Seeing your reaction. Had me tearing up. Remininded me of when I was a kid getting my first waves. Love the vids. ❤ from 🇦🇺

Stay long enough and by the law of averages, the kids should pick up Aussie accents 😉

Out of all your videos, this is my favourite by far! I have a video of my son and his younger sister running along the sand, hand in hand when they where young. I particularly loved it when you said "Don't wait. Right now is the best time." When I was a barrister, many solicitors asked my advice about making the leap from one to the other. I always told them don't wait for the right time, as it will never come. Just do it and make it the right time. I think this is why I feel a connection with your journey. I had no legal connections but, after law school, I went immediately to the bar - which I was told was impossible. I'm now retired after a very successful career. Never listen to the naysayers!

Wow your kids first solo wave was at the legendary pass at Byron Bay

Epic surf all the way down, too many spots to mention. Yamba is not far as well as Coffs.

Wow, she did very well 👏💪Wait until you get to the Blue Mountains, waterfalls in abundance

The further South you go more rain storms with a cold weather. Beautiful one second rain storm the next

Never was. Torquay Bells Beach 😊

What a Beautiful Video Thank you. ❤ Your Kids are amazing.

It's a must visit location. Glad you got to experience it and have those special memories that will last forever.

Yep Byron was fantastic in the early 80's it was like a village. By the 90's it had started to become to promoted as a place to be seen. Think the turning point was Strop buying the pub and then Paul Hogan building near Byron, so it was getting recognition. Used to be able to catch a train from Casino and Lismore to Byron to go surfing. Train line was closed years ago but the public were told a manipulated half truth of maintenance costs.

Hey even I am starting to say “holly molly” who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.thanks for your vid’s I’m feeling a bit down over some recent fall out with my friend and you get me smiling again thanks a million .Jes that woman in the light house should have givin you a special pass up the top

Yet again another beautiful video from the Wickman family. I met my wife at the Byron bay & a few years later had a sunrise wedding & a reception at the surf club. Many good memories of exploring that region & watching my kids catch their first waves. It has changed, but it’s still a great place 👍😁

G’day Family💕. Happy Australia Day 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thank you for letting me share this moment with yous🥲 So beautiful the contrasts of the area. Words are not enough to express how grateful & privileged I am that you have allowed me to come with yous. From the bottom of my , thank you 💓💓💓 Stephen 🇦🇺

Byron lost its soul many years ago

Byron Bay is not the centre of the east coast it never has been and never will be.

What a great memory seeing the kids surf for the 1st time on their own and it was at Byron. Very cool. 😎👍

How cool riding up front with the train driver. That's something you have bragging rights now. 😜😎

The best thing about Byron bay is the drive out of there . 👍👍👍

While people flock to Byron and surrounds they leave the unspoilt places alone. It has its uses.

Just walking past bush turkeys now like they’re nothing.

What a beautiful family. Australia needs people like u

I use to surf and camp down there at Byron 50yrs ago you camp on the Beaches with out getting in trouble at Wategos Beach every weekend ... Was no paid Parking the Place is full of Brazilians and Portugal thats why its called little Brazil now..lol..If you were there 50yrs ago you would say the same its lost its appeal ..Alot off the Yuppies from Brisbane have bought houses and built new ones they they dont want people around and try and change the Place ..50yrs ago it was awesome Place was mainly Aussies but its very Multi Culture now place has changed alot still a great place to visit but 100% not like it was 50yrs ago..As Australia has become very Multicultural so has Byron and its become a real tourist spot for people over seas ...50years ago you hardly seen a Tourist from overseas and the houses were older Beach houses ..But change has happened every where its the cycle of life just like the Gold Coast still great places to visit just has new Vibes about it..

If you can you can go Jarvis bay it’s amazing place

don't miss elenborough falls when you get further south.

Well there you go, paying for parking at a beach.....definitely lost it's charm. Real pity you couldn't go up the lighthouse! You're kids surfing was just brilliant! Lifetime memories!
