Evans Head Heritage Aviation Museum (F111 Museum)

The Evans Head Heritage Aviation Museum (the F111 Museum) sits on Memorial Airport Drive at Evans Head, on the Northern Rivers coast south of Byron Bay. A much-loved aviation museum, it celebrates the area's significant wartime aviation history — home to aircraft, an F-111 and a fascinating collection of aviation displays, memorabilia and stories at the historic Evans Head airfield.

The appeal is that combination of genuinely interesting aviation history and engaging displays: from aircraft and the iconic F-111 to wartime artefacts and the story of the historic airfield, it's a fascinating, educational stop for aviation enthusiasts, history buffs and families. The site's real wartime heritage gives it genuine significance and character.

With a 4.7 rating from more than 330 reviews, it's clearly a much-loved attraction. Opening hours, admission, the displays and any special events vary — and a volunteer-run heritage museum may keep limited hours — so it's worth checking current details before you go, particularly to confirm opening days and times, then enjoying the aircraft and aviation history at the Evans Head museum.
