We are the only backpacker accommodation to have DIRECT BEACH ACCESS. A 45 second walk to the beach!!!!

For starters, allow yourself at least one week in Byron as there is a multitude of things to do. Apart from lazing on one of the many beaches, Surfing, Sea Kayaking with the dolphins, Daily tours to Nimbin and the rain-forest, Scuba Diving in the Marine Reserve, Mountain Biking, Hang-gliding and Whale watching are just a start.

Nestled amongst sunny, palm filled courtyards, large grass lawns surround an inground pool and volleyball court.

Comfortable carpeted rooms, spacious dorms, fully equipped kitchen, modern bathrooms, showers, bathtubs, tv/common room and security boxes.

A 5 minute walk to the centre of town, with plenty of restaurants, bars and cinema's.
Wednesday and Saturday live music and fireshows at our BBQ'S.

Backpackers Inn is an all year round place to stay with sub-tropical temperatures averaging between 20C - 30C, perfect for our winter campfires.

Sports and movie fans won't be disappointed as we have a comprehensive movie library and all cable sports channels ( eg. Fox Sports) to see your favourite team play.
