Why it's worth checking out
The Cape Byron/Tallow Beach Lookout sits on Lighthouse Road in Byron Bay, near the iconic Cape Byron lighthouse on the NSW far north coast. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 19 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a breathtaking coastal outlook — a lookout taking in the sweep of Tallow Beach and the stunning coastline near Cape Byron, the most easterly point of mainland Australia, a genuine favourite for taking in the scenery, whales in season, a photo or simply soaking up the setting. It's a lovely, free outing.
Coastal lookouts have changing conditions and seasonal considerations, so check current details before you go. Otherwise it's a free spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring water, sun protection, comfortable shoes and your camera.
