WHAT TO EXPECT
Beat the heat and hit the water with the sun just dawning on a new day. This ocean adventure will be a highlight of your stay in Byron Bay. Paddle up close with dolphins, whales, and turtles in Cape Byron's Marine National Park while learning the local Aboriginal stories and sacred places. You'll also get an awesome view of Byron's coastline and the Byron Bay lighthouse from the water.
Your 2.5 hour kayak tour will start at Byron Bay beach:

- Paddle along 'The Pass' surfing Mecca, Wategos millionaire row, and Cape Byron, Australia's most Easterly point
- Keep an eye out for cheeky dolphins, whales (in season), and turtles popping up for a breath of air. It is such an awesome experience to see these marine mammals in their natural habitat
