About these results
Green space is part of the Byron Bay lifestyle — parks and gardens for picnics, playgrounds, a morning run or a lazy afternoon under a tree. Many are free and family-friendly, with barbecues and shade.
Listings are compiled from each venue's own published information and Google Places data, and ordered by Spot Score — a composite of attributed ratings, review volume, category fit and information freshness, not a firsthand review. Hours-based filters use published opening hours, which are not kitchen or last-order times. Sponsored placements are labelled and never counted in results. Spotted an error? Send a correction.
