Byron Bay is around 9-hours drive from Sydney and just a 2-hour drive from Brisbane. Byron Bay has much to offer with activities such as nature walks, day spas, surfing, ballooning, horse riding, art classes, markets, skydiving, scuba diving and more.
You should take a walk to the lighthouse, which has amazing views. There are plenty of potteries, galleries and craft shops for you to browse through. You can also take trips to Noosa, which is a great place for retreats for couples. You can do it all in Byron Bay from chilling out at the beach to clubbing.
I had 3 weeks hoilday, and wanted to see my brother and family in Australia. My brother lives in Bondi, so thought it best to stay in this area.
I stayed at the Swiss Grand Bondi hotel on Bondi Beach which was fabulous. Lovely spacious rooms with small separate room off bedroom and great rooftop swimming pool and spa. Bondi beach has great beach/walks/restaurants/bars/shops and is only 20mins from city centre, so we had best of both words. Were able to go to city centre to do harbour cruise, city tour and wander around the city & harbour area taking it all in.
After Sydney we flew to Hamilton Island and spent a few days at the Reef View Hotel. Hamilton is great with loads to do, nice restaurants, good sailing trips. Highlight was sailing trip to Whitehaven beach, stunning.
