Practical details
Why it's worth checking out
The Southern Breakwater walk sits at Brunswick Heads, a charming coastal village near Byron Bay on the NSW Northern Rivers. A near-perfect 4.8 rating from 39 reviews reflects its standing as a genuine highlight.
The appeal is a lovely coastal walk with beautiful views — a stroll along the Brunswick Heads breakwater where the river meets the sea, a genuine favourite for a walk, a fish, watching the boats or simply soaking up the lovely coastal scenery. It's a lovely, free outing.
