BYRON BAY - Australia 🇦🇺 [Full HD]

Videos and photos in Full HD I have made during my trip to Byron Bay in Australia (New South Wales) in 2017, including video footages and photos taken with my drone Dji Mavic Pro. The video includes the following highlights: Byron Bay (Main Beach, Belongil Beach, Cape Byron Lighthouse, whales, surfers and dolphins, Tallows Beach, Seven Mile Beach), Bangalow, Nimbin, Koala Hospital in Port MacQuarie, the Big Banana and sunset.
As always thank you for watching and for your great comments!

SwissTravelChannel is a KZbin channel of my holiday’s trips videos, taken all around the world since 2008. Some are for pure tourism and others are more of an adventure. The videos usually show the top best tourist attractions, the top things to do and top places to see. The goal is to inspire others on their next vacations. The videos can also be seen as a guide to have an idea of the main highlights and places to explore. I love to take pictures of the nature, traditions and different cultures, to search the must-see spots and show the essentials in my videos, for this reason I always try to create the perfect vacation. Traveling is more than a hobby for me, is a way of life.

BYRON BAY (source Wikipedia):
Byron Bay is a beachside town located in the far-northeastern corner of the state of New South Wales, Australia. It is located 772 kilometres (480 mi) north of Sydney and 165 kilometres (103 mi) south of Brisbane. Cape Byron, a headland adjacent to the town, is the easternmost point of mainland Australia. At the 2011 census, the town had a permanent population of 4,959. The town is in turn the nucleus of Byron Shire, which had 29,209 residents.
The local Arakwal Aboriginal people's name for the area is Cavvanbah, meaning "meeting place". Lieutenant James Cook named Cape Byron after Naval officer John Byron, circumnavigator of the world and grandfather of the poet Lord Byron.
The history of Europeans in Byron Bay began in 1770, when Lieutenant James Cook found a safe anchorage and named Cape Byron after a fellow sailor John Byron. The first industry in Byron was cedar logging from the Australian red cedar (Toona ciliata). The timber industry is the origin of the word "shoot" in many local names - Possum Shoot, Coopers Shoot and Skinners Shoot - where the timber-cutters would "shoot" the logs down the hills to be dragged to waiting ships.
Gold mining of the beaches was the next industry to occur. Up to 20 mining leases set up on Tallow Beach to extract gold from the black sands around the 1870s.
Byron Bay has a history of primary industrial production (dairy factory, abattoirs, fishing, and whaling until 1963) and was a significant, but hazardous, sea port. The poet Brunton Stephens spoke of cattle grazing on the "mossy plains" of Cape Byron in a poem he penned in 1876.
The first jetty was built in 1886, and the railway was connected in 1894, and Cavvanbah became Byron Bay in 1894. Dairy farmers cleared more land and settled the area. In 1895, the Norco Co-operative was formed to provide cold storage and manage the dairy industry. The introduction of paspalum improved production, and Byron Bay exported butter to the world. The Norco factory was the biggest in the southern hemisphere, expanding from dairy to bacon and other processed meat.
The lighthouse was built in 1901 at the most easterly point on the Australian mainland. In 1930, the first meatworks opened. The smell from the meat and dairy works was, by all accounts, appalling, and the annual slaughter of migrating whales in the 1950s and 1960s made matters worse. Sand mining for monazite (zircon, uranium and thorium) between the World Wars damaged the environment further, and one by one, all these industries declined.

I’m sure you will enjoy Byron Bay!

[@bobflinn7529]

Byron Bay is in New South Wales, not Queensland. Coolangatta is on the coast at the Queensland/New South Wales border. Byron Bay is roughly 100 km S of Coolangatta.

[@SwissTravelChannel]

Thanks, I’ve corrected the mistake 😅

Oops! What a crazy typo! Will have to edit this! LOL! Thanks for letting us know!

I'm from brazil and i prettend to live in byron bay about 6 months , so this moment i'm very confused about my choices:brisbane or byron bay . i know my english isn't so cool...but,what you guys think ? byron bay it is better ??

[@Hndjdj400]

Byron, nsw is more expensive than Brisbane, qld. Primary because byron is home to a lot of rich Americans. It's like the Brentwood of Australia

[@DampCrispz]
