A popular place to stop in for a coffee and sweet treat. Generous serve of their famous apple pie with spice apple ice cream. A variety of apple juice flavors to choose from. Lots of seating inside and outside. Toilets and parking on site. Friendly staff.

Suttons Juice Factory is a gem! Their apple pie is hands-down one of the best I’ve ever tasted — warm, flaky, and perfectly spiced. Plenty apple juices to taste, each one bursting with fresh flavour. Super friendly staff and a great spot to grab something delicious and local. Highly recommend!

A must visit for lovers of apple pie. You won’t be disappointed! Husband and I shared a portion and it was enough. The cafe is in a big tin shed which must get very hot in summer but there are fans and an outdoor seating area. Lots of apple-related products for sale.

Today we went back to Suttons, after a 13 year absence, to see if their famous apple pie was still as good as we could remember. YES, the apple pie was still as good as it was 13 years ago woohoo! Unfortunately the whole experience was let down by the awful cappuccino's we ordered with it, instead of cappuccino's we got a mug of warm milk - hence we didn't drink it and they went into the bin. The lady that served us, also cleaned the table and saw that we hardly drank any of it but never asked why we didn't drink the coffees. It was a bummer because when we ordered and asked for each of our coffees to have a double shot, she said that they use Merlo coffee beans and they are really strong and tasty. Despite this we insisted on double shots, I don't know where the shots went but definitely not in our mugs :(. In the end of the day we went there for the apple pie and that was delicious but I wouldn't recommend the coffee, that is if you are used to a strong cup of good coffee and not a warm cup of milk.

A must when in Stanthorpe. This place was recommended to us and it didn't dissapoint. 10/10 best Apple pie I've ever eaten! Homemade ice cream is delicious. Service is fast and staff are lovely and friendly. We will be back 🍎🍏

The staff were impolite, but it was busy. The pies were good, nothing special though. They have a lot of goodies you can buy; soaps, juice, ciders, jams 🍎🍓🍇🫐 The kind of place you only go to once :)

Good place to stop as you pass through Applethorpe/Granite Belt. Coffee was good and I had the Ruben Sandwhich (note that wasn't a standard/classic Ruben as pickels were in the sandwich and was on wholemeal not rye bread). Lots of apple juices to sample and good selection of juice and jams to purchase. Prices were 'moderate ' (no great deals to be had day I was there). Toilets were clean (note only for paying customers. )

Lots of creativity went into creating this attraction. There are 3 mazes, plus mini golf. You all get a riddle to solve too (adults included). The signs around the place are awesome, very comical. If u are in the region, come visit it. Great for kids.

Fabulous! We had the best time! The riddles were fun, spent an hr in the maze trying to find the clues, mini golf was well set up and the songs were hilarious! Highly recommend! Well maintained too!

What a fun experience! The Granite Belt Maze was a great way to spend part of our day in Stanthorpe. Challenging enough to be engaging but not frustrating. Perfect activity for couples or families visiting the region. Well-maintained and good value for money. Mini golf was fun too!

Very pleasant experience with the mazes and putt putt. A lot of fun, well maintained facilities and friendly people to deal with. Love the riddles of course, and the signs are very funny!

This was such a fun and different experience! Being family owned, you could definitely feel the love that has gone into creating the place. I was thoroughly entertained with the hilarious signs everywhere, and the maze experience was fun because you have to find the answer to a riddle. So even though you can just take it casually, when you have the riddle to finish it makes you more excited to get through it. There were smaller mazes too which were super kid friendly and we finished the day with a round of the mini golf which was actually super fun! The place itself was well maintained and looked after, really beautiful and had enough in way of ammenities to feel comfortable. The husband and wife who own it were so friendly and sweet. Definitely recommend giving it a go!

A very fun experience! The riddle to solve whilst traversing the maze was very enjoyable, and the mini golf afterwards was a fun way to cap off this enjoyable afternoon. Staff were super friendly, and everything felt super relaxed and lovely!

Great place to go for a few hours the man and his wife are lovely and my family and I had an awesome time. If you do go make sure to read the signs. I wish the council would promote this place a lot more as there is hardly any signage! The owner said the council won't allow more signs so please go there for a family fun half day and help promote this amazing husband and wife team.

Beautiful drive to get here. A bit of a shop and can buy a coffee & snacks plus lavender products of course. The lady and her granddaughter were great to chat to. There is an area to park your camper/caravan which would be nice and quiet.

Lovely place to stop. They have home produced products. Although we didn't indulge the scones and icecream looked delicious!

Very friendly host and staff!! Great shower and toilet facilities. I would recommend this place to people who wants to relax and enjoy the calmness of nature without the hassel of bring, setting up, and packing away own shower/toilet facilities. They also have nice fire pits you can use and free suply of firewoods! I would also like to share my experience here: The battery went dead for me car on the first night during my stay there. As Mick started the day and drove by my camp, he greeted me and asked how I was going for the first night. I told him that my battery had died and that I might have to ring the road site assistance to come and change my batter for me. Mick kindly helped me checked the status of my battery and jumped started my car. He recommended me to go to Stenthorpe to buy a new battery and offered to swap it for me; what a wonderful guy! I eventually drove to Warwick to find a Supercheap Auto to sort out my battery since I wanted to visit some places and needed to get some supplies anyway. Overall, the 5-day stay experience is exerllent. Highly recommended!!

In my honest opion I have more lavender in my pot puri in my dunny. This place is a complete waste of time and not worth the diversion off the highway. The most exciting thing about this place is avoiding the the pot holes on the driveway.

We camped here over the Easter break. The owners are very friendly and helpful and the grounds were well maintained. There is a toilet and shower block within a minute or so walk of the farthest camping site. Only missing a communal camp kitchen, however at the price point it is and considering how much room we had available to us, it was well worth not having that amenity. There wasn't a small designated space and we felt far enough away from other campers.

We were greeted by a lovely elderly lady at the door. That was lovely. The gift shop was cute. I loved their Aprons and bought Lavender earl grey tea. It is so nice to sip at night and relax. Thankyou for this brew. Will visit again 😊

A lovely cafe and gift shop tucked away in the countryside. The scones were delicious. Prices were very reasonable for a family run business. Had a homely feel with a cat and dog roaming around and the owner is always up for a chat!

Am amazingly beautiful part of the world and only a short drive from Tenterfield. Also great camping and swimming holes. The dirt track is easy going and approx 14 kilometers (8 mi).

Absolutely worth the visit, even if you're coming from far. The scenery is fantastic, the walks can be as long or as short as you want, and you're always near this picturesque river and the incredible waterfall.

Well worth the drive in from Tenterfield, picnic area and toilets are well maintained. Spectacular views down through the gorge and waterfalls cascading down the side. There is a large pool at the top that you can swim in tho we did not as it was cold a a little discoloured from all the recent rains and bushfires in the area. Still well worth it for a drive and a sausage on the BBQ.

Easy relaxing walk well pathed

Only 27km from Tenterfield, Boonoo Boonoo National Park has a stunning waterfall, secluded swimming holes, hiking tracks, camping areas, accommodation and picnic spots. After Banjo Patterson proposed to his sweetheart, Alice Walker, at Boonoo Boonoo Falls lookout, there was movement at Tenterfield cattle station. Word had passed around that the station owner’s daughter had got away. Presumably she loved the guy, but it’s possible that his charming choice of setting in which to pop the question might have helped sway her answer. Alice didn’t have a chance and she and Banjo married in 1903. Today, Boonoo Boonoo (pronounced bunna-bunoo) is still the ultimate romantic setting, especially after a good rainfall. From the lookout is an uninterrupted view of the Boonoo Boonoo River cascading over the granite cliff edge to become a spectacular waterfall that plunges 210m into the gorge below. Nearby, you’ll find walking tracks and shady places to picnic. Secluded rock pools along the river, lined by wildflower-filled bushland, are the perfect way to cool off on a hot day.

Great place to visit if you're around Tenterfield. Easy walk and spectacular scenery. Good facilities for a stopover, rest or picnic.

Beautiful camping area, with a gorgeous swimming area. No phone reception either so a blissfully distraction free experience.

We had a great stay in one of the newer tipis. Mark was extremely friendly and we stayed in the reception building with him to wait for the storm to quiet down. He gave us a great tour of all the animals on the farm. Highly recommendable!

Thankyou Damen and your staff for showing us your amazing part of the world. It was a privilege to spend a few days listening to your knowledge and the passion for the animals. What you and your staff have achieved is an experience we highly recommend to everyone young and old. The children loved the Tepee and their own campfire. The peace and tranquillity was magical. I wish you all the best for the future and hope to see you again soon especially for the fantastic bison burgers.

We went to the park today only as day visitors. We were greeted and shown around the park by a very friendly and informative man, who went out of his way to keep the kids happy and was very patient. The bison, baby rabbits, donkey, cows, peacocks, dingoes, guinea pigs and a large variety of birds were all on display.. The pool, amenities block and bbq area are all clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend this place for day visitors or overnight campers. Thank you for the lovely day.

We are having an absolute blast up here. We travelled up from Sydney, it was very much worth the trip and staying a few days. A big thank you to Damo, his wife Sharon and staff for going out of there way to make us feel like home. There are activities here for all ages, fishing, 4WDing, bush walking, cooking, relaxing and of course the magnificent American Bison are a site to see. We stayed in our camper trailer, the camping grounds are level and heaps of space between camp sites. Suitable for tents, swags and largest of caravans. The amenity building is near new and very well keep. The showers are also very hot. We also purchased directly from the farm, a freezer full of Bison meat. I can highly recommend this place to anyone and we will be coming back. 👍👍👍

This bison farm is amazing. the staff are friendly, kind, very welcoming and they have a great personality, they have great knowledge of the animals they have. they answered all my brothers, dad and my questions. The animals there are very friendly, also very beautiful and very well looked after. its very calming and peaceful property. I would recommend visiting this wonderful place. and I`m will be back in the future.

We spent one night here but could have stayed longer. The hosts Mark and Ben could not have been more helpful. The kids had so much fun here with the birds, horses,cows,rabbits and of course the bison. We will definitely be back again. Fantastic place.

Best Place in all of Australia, we had the best night thanks to Damo his beautiful son and the team there, we got to experience things we never would have got to had we not come out to this beautiful space that has been created, it is a once in a lifetime, my kids did not want to leave ever! It was a true adventure I don’t even know where to begin with words! The care, love and respect that is given to the animals was honourable and the respect showen to the native home of the bison was beautiful to see also. Everything was super clean and comfortable and we where made to feel at home, with stories around the bonfire a true blessing of an experience with new friends made I couldnt recommend this place more highly

I’m a fan. And I will be back. There’s a huge abundance and variety of native edibles as well as other exotic edibles and plant stock to wander. Today we grabbed some great bargains for the beginning year of our food forest. The staff have been helpful, despite me not knowing what to ask - having almost no growing experience - they have been able to direct me to what I need to know. And the emails have been useful and informative- no excess.

Visited Daleys Fruit tree Nursery yesterday, and came home with a Custard Apple tree (Paxton Prolific)! My grandchildren and I can’t wait to pick fruit from our new tree. Luckily them know we need to care and water our trees before they start to fruit. The wait is worth it when you get the result of beautiful fresh fruit. Thanks Daleys for your advice

Happy with purchase: reasonable pricing, plant is good quality and arrived in very good condition. Especially, happy with fair pricing for delivering interstate, plus multiple choices on couriers. Other places online charged a crazy amount to deliver interstate, to the point it was not worth it to buy the plant, so I'm glad I've found Daley's! Will be shopping here again.

I have used Daleys to buy plants online about 10 times, and I've always ended up with a great plant. The website has lots of good information to help you choose the right plant for you and your climate with info on pollination varieties when cross-pollination, etc. Is required. The service is great, and they have quickly and helpfully resolved an issue the one time I had with one. I'll keep coming back! :)

Amazing experience, black out dark at night 😂

Fantastic , loved it , the views are spectacular from all lookouts All wheel drive , but rough in parts Drop toilet s , all clean not bugs & water to wash your hands. Ready enjoyed the short walk s we did. Met up with others doing the 3 hour walks who loved it as well Great places to picnic, we took provisions to cook on open fire, wonderful Had family with us who hadn’t been before, they loved it to

Such a well maintained park, amazing walking tracks and an absolutely breathtaking view. I was amazed how much wildlife there was when camping at Sheepstation Creek, Pademelons were playing around the camp grounds until dawn, and the birds were very curious and would come sit in the tree close to us. AMAZING!!!

Stunning and beautiful National park. Drive the Tweed Range Scenic Drive - the rainforest way is a must. Mostly dirt road. Incredible walking trails, rainforests, lookouts, campsites and picnic areas.

Beautiful, quiet and not so much visited national park with beautiful viewpoints and forest walks. The road is in good condition and passable with a normal car.

Wonderful national park for day trips and overnight camping (online booking), with both family friendly and challenging walks through the rainforests, as well as spectacular lookout views. $8 park fee payable (exact change required). Brindle Creek loop is a good short 1km family friendly walk across wooden foot bridges; the kids love climbing over tree roots and mossy stones. Blackbutt Lookout is easily accessible, within steps from parking. Pinnacle Lookout (300m walk) is also breathtaking, but not for the faint hearted. There are sheer cliff drops and not fully fenced along the whole track, so you must keep an eye on younger children. Two good camping spots available and can be booked online.

Very beautiful park. The roads are a bit dangerous if it rains so definitely drive under the 40 speed limit or the mud will make you slide

Friday night, still waiting for food at the cook to order. It’s been 56minutes since ordering. Kids are grumpy, very very slow should have gone somewhere else

The latest renovation is great. The club layout has a terrific atmosphere and a good sense of space. The club manages to feel warm and comfortable without being overcrowded. I met with friends from sydney, and they were very impressed. They loved the relaxed, comfortable vibe and good food. Well done 👏

Went for dinner the first time ever in Lismore. Meals were priced well and exactly as you should get from an establishment like this. A plain simple meal, without trying to make it something it's not. Our table had a parmi, schnitzel and burger. Food was fresh. Perhaps a bit too long of a wait, but I'm still giving 5 stars.

Went for lunch with friends as I have been told the pizzas were good. They ordered a pot of tea and were advised there were no teapots available and were given the tea in paper cups. I ordered a gourmet chicken and advocado pizza.. there was 5 pieces of chicken and the avocado was liquid from a squeeze bottle. The pizza was probably the worst one I have ever had. I ate one piece and left the rest. The staff were disinterested and no smiles at the bar. I ordered a bottle of water and it was given to me with no glass or straw. We were going to renew our memberships, as we haven't been here since the floods, but have now decided not to bother.

The gentleman on the door was fantastic! I was also very impressed with the venue, it was my first time in town so I just went to the closest pub and I was very pleasantly impressed. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

The workies have made great use of the smaller space since reopening, and the food has been great each time I've been. Busy Friday night for the raffles, but once they were finished a lot of people left. They had a brilliant young kid singing throughout dinner (Noah) - extremely talented! It was great listening to some entertainment while having dinner.

Not been here since it was renovated. Pleasantly surprised. Relaxed vibe though the lone musician playing Saturday afternoon was too loud - there was hardly anyone sitting nearby.

Great fun, good market food

Beautiful people

Easy parking and access to the shopping precinct. Had coffee and a light breakfast at Cafe near the food court. Delicious and great service.

I mean it's a woolies.. not much to say.. bigger range then Goonellabah we only use when we have other reasons to be down in the square

Nice quick and convenient but the car park underneath is always filthy full of rubbish sadly

Well resourced Regional Shopping hub for Lismore in air conditioned comfort that has recovered very well since the horrific 2022 Floods that devastated the region.

Always a pleasure. The necessary shops in one place.

Iconic mall with underground parking. Shop at all the usual suspects plus specialty shops. A cool respite in summer for what is known locally as a 'squang' but please don't neglect the CBD. Flooded for the first time in the unprecedented 2022 flood and has been completely renovated internally.

Always a pleasure to visit here. With all the variety shops, and major stores available. Plenty of parking available and all wheelchair accessible.

Such lovely and kind staff! So helpful and very knowledgeable about the town. They just reopened after a year and are still the first stop you should make in Lismore.

Fun place for the kids to play in Heritage Park beside the Visitor Information Centre, fully fenced with quite a few bbq areas Only Bad point is No toilets close to play area . Only toilets in Visitor Information Center ONLY whilst centre is open, surely Council could provide children's toilets at the park to use during day light only...

Polite staff although I think more advice and guidance could have been offered. I got a few ideas but could have got the same information from the leaflet rack next to the desk.

Great place to visit. Very nice local products for sale.

Beautiful and inter active displays inside. Nice gift ideas

Amazing amount of local information and produce.

Nice place to visit, friendly staff

Great display of a few historical aircraft. The museum is well maintained and is staffed by very informative volunteers

If I could give this place 6 stars, I would. It was the best experience I’ve had in a long time. My partner booked me for the F-111 experience, and honestly, there was so much information that my brain was fried by the end – in a good way! Both John and Tim were absolutely wonderful. From the moment we entered, we were greeted with happy smiles and a helpful, enthusiastic attitude. You could tell these guys had a passion for aviation and are eager to share their knowledge. After a little tour, I got to step inside the F-111 and instantly was engrossed and mesmerised by all the buttons and gadgets. I won’t give anything away, other than saying you HAVE to do this experience if you love the f-111 like I do. (Don’t forget to Pre-book the experience before you arrive - but standard entry fee is paid on arrival) I want to thank John for the exceptional cockpit experience. Watching the F-111s at Riverfire as a kid has come alive for me. Being able to have hands on experience has made a dream come true. Now while the f-111 is the highlight for me, they did have a few other neat planes. The Mig, Canberra and Caribou were really cool to see up close!

Absolutely brilliant day at this museum. It's jam packed with loads of information and you can relax watching videos from pilot's and engineers. The staff are also very welcoming, and they too have even more information on the aircrafts in museum too. The little gift shop is great you can buy models, books and my favourite the little badges of all aircraft✈️ great souvenir. 👍

A wonderful exhibition showcasing the many aircraft, men and women that contributed to our military history. Sitting in the F111 is indeed an experience to bed had. The volunteers have contributed much time and effort..well done.

If you have an interest in aircraft this is a great spot to visit especially if you are in the area. The volunteers were knowledgeable and helpful. It is clean and well organised and there is ample information about each aircraft

It was great!! Absolutely loved it!! The staff were friendly, full of information and engaging. The person who did our tour was a brilliant orator. Our kids (12, 10 and 8) loved it, too.

Great aviation museum. Manned by locals who are knowledgeable and great to chat to. The piece de resistance is the F111 A8-147. It is in excellent shape and and this is the closest I have ever been to one. The Caribou was interesting to walk through. The Canberra bomber and flight trainer great exhibits. Well worth a visit.

Fantastic lookout! Only has 5 car parks directly in front of it, but there are more nearby if you don't mind walking a few extra metres! Beautiful view of the bay! Highly recommend!

Excellent views, easy access, amenities onsite, daily weather and tide report available at lookout.

This is a great place to see both the beaches in the ocean and possibly whales and dolphins as well this is a great Lookout Point it was very windy when we visited making it difficult to stay there too long but it was there are toilets there so it's a good for a break terrestrial likes of your own long drive highly recommended

You can see a lot from up here. (Some shrubs need trimming). Parking, picnic tables, toilets and viewing platform here.

Great area to sit down and check out a great view.

A good place to stretch the legs and enjoy the views when the weather is nice. The area has a reasonable amount of parking spaces and your dog is allowed on a leash here. Toilet facilities and a few picnic places are available, alongside some shaded seating and a few maritime artefacts.

This is a really well set out lookout. There are multiple viewing platforms each with a great view. Heaps of tables for a picnic. Includes free bbqs to cook up a meal. There is more car parking than when you first drive in so continue on if the first bays are full. There are public toilets.

Massive waterfall and the pathways around it were really good. Looking down felt crazy its a long way down. Certainly worth a look. The pathway is well maintained and there is a nice viewing platform. It's accessible for anyone be young, old or in a wheelchair. It's a nice spot for a picnic with tables and benches and some toilets also

Take your 4WD! The drive is narrow and winding with many potholes off the sides and on road to avoid. The road turns into dirt for a stint and then turns to bitumen leading up to the carpark. Sedans and low to ground cars can drive there but I wouldn't recommend it in the wet. The site has toilets and paved walkway to the landing to see the Minyon Falls. The falls would be spectacular after rains. The drop is expansive. There are a number of bushwalks you can take from this spot.

Minyon Falls Lookout: A Thrilling View Worth the Treacherous Drive Minyon Falls, nestled within the magnificent Nightcap National Park in the Northern Rivers region of NSW, is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular natural attractions in the area. The view from the lookout, where the 100m cascade plunges over the rhyolite cliffs into a deep, palm-shaded gorge below, is breathtaking. On a clear day, you can often see all the way out to the coastline. The lookout platform is easily accessible via a short, gentle walk from the main car park, making it perfect for all fitness levels. However, reaching this slice of paradise is an adventure in itself, and requires serious preparation—and a careful choice of vehicle. A Warning About Road Conditions Visitors must be fully aware that the journey to Minyon Falls is challenging and should not be undertaken lightly, especially after heavy rain. Access to Minyon Falls is only via Minyon Falls Road. The roads leading into the National Park are often single-lane in stretches, narrow, and winding, requiring extreme caution and low speeds. Visibility around corners can be poor. The final section of the approach, particularly along Minyon Falls Road, is unsealed (dirt/gravel) and notoriously rough. Deep potholes, large rocks, and deep run-off ditches are common, posing a significant risk to the underside and tires of low-clearance vehicles. While some sedans can make it if driven slowly and with great care, a 4WD or high-clearance vehicle is strongly recommended, especially if wet weather is forecast or has recently occurred. The dirt tracks become extremely muddy and slippery when wet. The drive itself demands full concentration, but the reward at the end makes the bumpy, slow journey worthwhile. Exploring the Tracks!! From Easy Viewpoints to Hard Climbs Once you arrive, Minyon Falls offers several walking tracks to suit different energy levels. 1. Minyon Falls Lookout (Easy) • Distance: Very short, 50\text{m} to 100\text{m} return walk from the car park. • Grade: Easy. • Highlights: Panoramic views over the gorge, waterfall, and the distant coast. Picnic tables are available here. 2. Minyon Grass to Base of Minyon Falls (Hard) • Distance: Approximately 4\text{km} return. • Time: Around 2 hours. • Grade: Hard/Strenuous. • Highlights: This is the most direct route to the base of the falls and the beautiful natural swimming hole. However, the final 100\text{m} involves a challenging rock scramble over large, often wet and slippery boulders to reach the pool at the base of the 100\text{m} drop. 3. Minyon Loop Walking Track (Moderate/Hard) • Distance: 7.5\text{km} to 13\text{km} circuit (depending on start point). • Time: 3.5 to 5 hours. • Grade: Moderate to Hard. • Highlights: This full circuit allows you to experience the diverse landscape, passing through ancient subtropical rainforest, alongside fern-lined creeks, and showcasing towering old-growth brushbox trees before descending to the base of the falls. Be prepared for steep sections on the return climb. Essential Preparation for Visitors Due to the remote location and potential challenges of the drive and the trails, you must come prepared: Sturdy hiking shoes with excellent grip are essential, particularly for the rock scrambling near the base of the falls and the steep, potentially slippery loop track. • Water: Carry plenty of drinking water (at least per person for the longer walks). • Leech Protection: After rain, leeches are common in the rainforest sections. Wear long socks and consider insect repellent. • Weather: Check the forecast and wear appropriate clothing (layers, rain gear). If the falls are the main attraction, visit after recent rainfall to ensure a strong flow; they can be reduced to a trickle in dry spells. • Safety: Always advise a friend or family member of your travel plans and expected return time, as phone reception can be intermittent.

Easy access to the lookout area. Plenty space to park. Restroom, bbq spot and picnic table are there too for visitors. Only took around 5 minutes from carpark to the lookout. Place was beautiful and the view was amazing that day eventho its raining hard.

Amazing. Short walk from the carpark. Option to hike to the bottom (3-4hrs apparently). Safe railing etc. Picnic tables x3. Swimming in the rock pools up the top, at your own risk.

Beautiful walk to the bottom of the falls. Being winter was too cold to swim but have been in summer and it was a great swimming spot. Bit of rock scrambling towards the end so not suitable for young children

Great view of the waterfall and a lovely walk to the bottom of the waterfall. We walked to the bottom, then to the picnic area and walked back along the road back to the lookout and it took just over 3 hours.

Such a beautiful gallery, we accidentally found it. I have wanted to visit Margaret Olley Gallery since it opened in 2014. I wasn't disappointed at all. The essence of Margaret Olley is presented well here, and one can feel Margaret Olley in her rooms.

If I could give this gallery 10 stars I would. We went on a Sunday morning and joined the 11.30am tour with Hella. Wonderfully comprehensive, starting with Margaret Olley’s house recreation. And going on to a curated wall including a Monet and 3 Margaret Olley originals! A Monet in Murwillumbah! You can even buy a book bag with this on it. Fantastic gallery, incredible views, great location, and it’s free. Take a jumper, it’s absolutely freezing in the gallery and you won’t want to rush through as there’s so much to see. We went to Murwillumbah for lunch afterwards, I’d recommend you check the open times if you have a particular cafe in mind, we got caught out being a Sunday afternoon. I’ve seen the Margaret Olley Archibald Prize winning portrait when it was at GOMA in Brisbane, but now it feels like she has made her way to her rightful home at the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre. Highly, highly recommend. I’ll be going back.

Must visit art gallery if you’re in Murwillumbah or in Gold Coast. Interesting to see the special exhibition dedicated to Olle. Despite not being an artist, i love to visit art gallery where i am from. There is so much knowledge to learn from each masterpiece at every art gallery i have been visiting.

Visited gallery today. It's an amazing gallery with spectacular views across the river & area. Exhibitions hung at present are well worth the trip. Ben Quilty Archibald Margaret Ollie portrait an amazing addition. Truely a gem of culture in the middle of the bush. Well worth the trip from anywhere. Do yourself a favour.

Visited for the first time. Fantastic regional gallery. The replica of Margaret Olley’s Paddington home was really interesting and gave an insight into this Aussie character. Well worth a visit! Ben Quilty’s Archibald portrait of Olley was a personal highlight. Items from the National Gallery currently on display including Monet’s Haysatcks, midday was a nice surprise.

Great place. They recreated Margaret Olley's place exactly how it was. Over 21000 items moved and put back to how when she lived in the house. Awesome exhibition.

Wow what an art gallery! Margaret Olley display, amazying. Great location, views, well worth the visit.

We stopped by The Big Prawn in Ballina, NSW, and it was a fun experience. This giant prawn sculpture is a popular roadside attraction and a great spot for a photo op. *Highlights:* - *Iconic Landmark:* The Big Prawn is a recognizable landmark and a great spot for a quirky photo. - *Food:* The adjacent cafe serves seafood and other local specialties. *Tips:* - *Take a Photo:* It's a great spot for a fun and quirky phot - *Try the Seafood:* The adjacent cafe serves fresh seafood, so be sure to try some. *Rating Breakdown:* - *Attraction:* 4/5 - *Gift Shop:* 4/5 - *Food:* 4/5 - *Overall Experience:* 4/5 *Recommendation:* The Big Prawn is a fun and quirky roadside attraction that's worth a stop if you're driving through Ballina. Take a photo and try some local seafood. It's a great spot to break up a long drive.

This is definitely worth a visit if you are driving along the pacific highway/east coast. We stopped by here during our road trip from QLD to Melbourne and took some pictures. This attraction would be great fun especially for the kids. There is plenty of free parking available at bunnings car park.

We stopped by the Big Prawn in Ballina for some classic touristy photos. There’s no specific parking, but we just pulled into the Bunnings car park (no tickets required). We rode past on the weekend but it was packed, so we came back early Monday morning when it was quiet and managed to get a great spot for photos.

Easy parking. My eldest asked if they have a "Big BBQ" to go with the prawn, you could just pop in to bunnings to grab one while you're there.

Biggest prawn I've seen (so far). While standing in the Bunnings parking lot admiring the craftsmanship of this large crustacean, it began to thunder. That quickly, our admiration became tinged with fear. What other weather events might the Big Prawn conjure? Flash floods? Acid rain? Stop and see Him if you're in the neighborhood, but do so with the respect and appreciation He deserves. Only 4 stars because it could be bigger.

Big and funny prawn that is worth a quick stop if you are driving by or during a long road trip. Lots of free parking at Bunnings and you can go for a toilet break nearby at Faulks Reserve (the toilet opens from 6am-6pm). Definitely drop by if you get the chance and snap a pic or get a good laugh. Just make sure you don't get run over by cars while you are admiring this comically large prawn!

Not much to say other than I’m blown away. The big prawn thoroughly exceeds expectations both in size and grandeur.

It’s a nice place. Easy access. Had warning signs as very dangerous. Nice to sit in the shallow rock pools. If game the big rock pool is quite big and deep but you can’t see in the water so check your surroundings and the depth first. People had picnics blankets and dogs. A bit of grass to sit on. Quite a bit of parking. Nice for a rock pool but I’ve been to a few nicer ones here.

What a beautiful magical place to sit & enjoy the great out doors in nature. So pretty & serene. Just a 40 minute drive from the Gold Coast, it worth the drive.

We drove all the way to the end of the street into Currumbin valley as the rock pools were crowded. Beautiful nature and very long stream so not too crowded even on holidays. Short paved walk so something for all levels of adventure. Many waterfalls to swim in along the way.

Lovely place to visit with the family. Picnic area, toilets, and swim area. Had turtles in the water which the kids thought was cool. Great place to stop and have a swim or lunch. Date visited- 02/02/25

Great place to relax and unwind. Can get very busy and limited parking on the weekends.

Whoah this place is pretty! Not sure if there is enough parking around on busy, hot days.

Really beautiful place and well worth the drive from Brisbane.

We visited in the school holidays with our 3 kids. Ranging from 12yo-1yo. So much to see and look at. Also some interactive exhibits from scavenger hunts, knot tying and ship steering wheels and horns. You could easily spend an entire day in there just reading and learning but the bonus is it kept my kids captivated looking at all the model ships and a torpedo. So much history - we loved it.

An amazing and well curated museum. Well worth the $5 entry. Kept us busy on a rainy day. We will definately be going back again.

What a fabulous place! Even if you aren't into maritime, you will find it fascinating and learn lots. They cater for kids too, with a fact finding mission. So much history, displayed so well. You could easily spend several hours there, as there is so much to read and see. Congratulations to the volunteers who keep this place running. It's a credit to you.

Was just circling around the town and realised there is a museum around. 5 dollar entry... It's better to have cash in hand... They have a great collection of naval vessels models and useful trivia about it. A lot of captured vessels and their info too. It's definitely worth a visit.

Wow! What an amazing place to take kids to learn about all kinds of floating sea and river going vessels. My three year old grandson ate this place up! Needs repeat visits to fully absorb all there is to see. We lived all the boat models and pirate info. We will be back and at $3 entry fee it’s a great place to go on a rainy day. Some very cool & reasonably priced souvenirs are also available to buy to remember your visit. 5 stars!!

We have a great time at the museum. The staff were so welcoming and friendly, and the scavenger hunt was really fun. There were loads to look at and the boats were very detailed. We got to hold different shells and seahorses for finishing the scavenger hunt. I would definitely recommend this place. We didn't even have to wait, and the entrance fee was very cheap. It was quite cool in the museum, and we could see the ship's cabin in the olden days. It was really fun, and we hope to come back.

What an amazing place to visit. We were so impressed with the displays and all the models. The volunteers were so friendly and helpful. This is well worth a visit and I would highly recommend it.

The staff was professional and friendly. The information given was helpful. Thank you. K n T

Had a great experience this morning with the lady working! She was incredibly informative about the area and beyond for us travelling. We went to the lighthouse walk and spotted the dolphins. Highly recommend stopping in! We were also thrilled to get a iron on patch to add to our collection

As an international traveler, I found the Ballina Visitor Information Centre incredibly helpful. The staff were super friendly and gave me really good suggestions and ideas on what to do in the area, which made my visit to Ballina even more enjoyable. They have a wealth of information, along with fantastic maps and brochures that helped me get around with ease. I was also impressed by their wide selection of local souvenirs and gifts — I picked up some amazing local products and couldn’t resist the fun prawn socks! If you're visiting from overseas like me, make this one of your first stops. It's a great way to get oriented and pick up some great souvenirs to take home.

Called in to ask about whale watching. Very helpful and informative staff who booked for us and had personal experience with the trip. Really great service and so much better than relying on internet info. As a retail worker I value good service and this was provided. Thank you!!

It was a very helpful place the lady shared a lot of information and gave us some places to look at

We came in and ordered gift hampers full of local produce - they were beautiful and well received by the recipients. Great work Ballina Visitor Information Centre!

Very nice girl helped us and gave us some ideas what to do whilst waiting for our flight out of Ballina to Sydney. We spent day at pool across from info centre.

A gorgeous working farm with so much to offer. Lots of local produce, fresh cut flowers, plants, a cafe, ice creamery and restaurant on site. We visited as a couple, but so much to see for kids and families too. Lots of open green spaces, the opportunity to sign up for hands-on, educational sessions or just wander around taking it all in with a coffee. We took home a ready made meal, cheese, wine and small goods for a platter. Don't miss this, a must do in Byron.

We visited over the weekend and arrived around 7:30am—already about 70% of the car park was full, so it's clearly a popular spot. We didn’t join a tour and instead wandered around the farm with our dog on-leash. The farm is well signed, making it easy to navigate on your own. There’s a great variety of farm animals, a lovely macadamia orchard, and other produce to explore. We grabbed a coffee, lemon meringue tart, Portuguese tart, ham and cheese croissant, and a jar of mixed nuts along with fresh eggs. The food was great—though prices are on the higher side, which is expected for a tourist-oriented location. The older lady at the cashier was polite and courteous. However, the younger staff around the coffee area were less helpful. I felt I was treated differently, being asked to wait outside for my order while others were clearly allowed to wait inside. It was disappointing and felt discriminatory. The service here could definitely be improved.

The food was absolutely delightful. Our gluten free options tasted fresh and flavourful. Walking around The Farm, after our meal at the Three Blue Ducks, was lovely. There were so many happy chooks and cute sheep, goats, cows, and many other farm creatures.

Great access to animals at no charge. Ducks, chickens, goats and sheep. Farm shop, ice cream shop and restaurant prices were very steep but to be expected at a touristy hotspot. We didn't eat there or buy anything but just a place to stretch our legs on the trip from Brisbane to Byron Bay

We have visited The Farm a few times. We dined in the restaurant again and the specials were spectacular, the porchetta was delicious. The service was also outstanding. The takeaway pasteries from the bakery were a little underwhelming but overall a lovely visit. The restaurant cuisine and service was outstanding. We will be back.

An interesting place for dining off the busy area of Byron. Pleasant surroundings- farm style as the name indicates. Service was good, staffs were friendly and the food was delectable. Careful if you’re sitting on the outside area as you will have birds as guests.. We were there on a weekday so there was no live band.

Perfect day out! We made our own picnic in the cafe onsite and enjoyed it at one of the picnic tables. After that we explored the farm and visited some of the farm animals. Great space for the whole family. The food is all delicious! Highly recommend!

Lovely spot, beautiful scenic vista of the Lennox Head coastline with views north to Byron Bay and beyond. Stay awhile and chill or go for a walk up to the lookout (it's about 60 uphill steps). If your keen and the winds are favourable you could book a tandem hang glide with Peter at Byron Bay Lennox Head Hang Gliding School for breathtaking birds eye views.

What a great spot to watch the sunrise, with unabated views across the ocean as the sun rises what looks like straight out of the sea. Lots of dolphins and even a whale or two breaching the water a few hundred meters of shore.

Fantastic lookout, saw many whales and lovely coastal walk. Great place for sunset picnic.

A beautiful spot with convenient nearby parking. Stay close to the car and watch the paragliders, or continue up/down the boardwalk trail as far as you want. There's also a water station by the car park.

Beautiful lookout with a good carpark, plenty of parks. Great lil area to sit at and walk around

Amazing views of Lennox Heads. Highly recommended. There is a spacious car park and it’s free

Easy to find easy access nice short walks excellent views of the coastline

Great dog beach plenty of room. Very nice community very excepting. By that i mean as a young guy wearing a g string at the beach I had no issues. I loved every second there

An expansive and stunning beach where you can take your dog off leash. The water is beautiful and very clear for the most part and the tide goes out quite far which really opens the beach up. Several parking areas and lots of beach to walk along. There's also some shaded areas on the bank which are great, although mostly limited shade on this beach. Definitely one of the better beaches in Byron Bay where you can take your dog.

What’s a stunning view of the ocean and sunset. Loved this beach and the fact that the caravan park was next to it where we were staying was a bonus. The kids had a great time so did I, as I finally managed to take some amazing shots and tips lapse videos on the beach. Next time I will book out one of the cabins. It’s a dog friendly beach lots of people were just sitting there and enjoying the sunset and a smoke ;)

Wow busy town and beach. It is definatly a place you need to come to early in the morning to secure parking for the day. Stunning views. For the swimmers that like to be more relaxed there is a public pool near the beach. Easy enough to take a break in one of the local businesses near buy to grab a bite to eat. Lovely laid back town with the surfy vibe.

Seemingly endless flat beach for relaxed walking. The sand is so comfortable for barefoot that's it's almost addictive. Lots of people walk their dogs on the beach as well.

The off leash beach is so big your fur babies will definitely be worn out when they get home. We drove 2 hours from Brisbane and our dogs were dead to the world all the way home. Two happy fur brothers

Diverted to Byron on our way to Brisbane in search of Chris Hemsworth and Matt Damon. As a Sydney boy it's exactly what I imagined it would be. After stopping at the beach for some photos (cos we're tourists so it's a must) we continued on our road trip. Sadly with no encounter of Thor or Jason Bourne. Perhaps next time.

Nice little cafe with a good cuppa. We had a ham cheese tomato croissant that was quite good and a carrot cake that was pretty tasty. Now what makes this place special is quite obviously the view. One of the most iconic views in Australia. Beautiful. You have to be quite lucky to get parking g but it is available. Very nice that they have the tables outside to enjoy the view. Nice touch.

The views from this lighthouse are definitely worth the 8 dollars we paid for parking. You get a full 360° of amazing scenery and there is a lovely little hill walk too. The coffee shop is delightful too! They do fresh gelato ice cream which is exactly what you need to cool down after the walk.

Absolutely beautiful! The food was delicious and the coffee was AMAZING. seriously the best coffee in Byron bay and such a reasonable price. The manager Sian and her sister are absolutely beautiful and so kind. Love that they are a family ran business and locals! Their sister cafe is also The Pass Cafe which I can not wait to try. 1000/10 the best cafe!

The redeeming feature of this cafe is the spectacular views! The coffee, latte and scone were mediocre. The staff were friendly and the service was prompt. The car park attendant was quite rude and officious. It would be good for the frontline person to be friendly and welcoming.

Walked up with my water bottle, immediately told to go outside to fill it up which is fine but one of the ladies working, I could not understand what she was saying and she was pointing around the corner (the water fountain was straight ahead). Then I finally realised where she meant and heard the other lady say “open your eyes” and they both laughed….. SORRY but I could’ve found it quicker if your coworker wasn’t babbling while speaking and had just given me clear direction. Got annoyed at me when it was her coworkers fault that I started to go the wrong way. I work in hospitality I know how frustrating it can get especially when a customer can’t find something but I’d never say something rude like that out loud in front of them. So rude! Also I was planning on grabbing something to eat but nevermind! Maybe next time you go to talk poorly about or to a customer keep your voice down😁

Popped in for a quick snack and beverage when viewing the lighthouse. Surprisingly…. Wasn’t expensive, had great food and the view is just sensational! Strong recommend from me!!!

Sensational views. Chance of spotting dolphins and whales. Sunrise is a must. Moderate walk up there. Not really much parking available (cost involved) so most people walk or ride half way. Nice little cafe for coffee and iceream althought staff a little rude. Free entry to actually go up and have a look from top of the lighthouse by volunteer guides.

This walking track is a wonderful experience for nature lover. If you are visiting during July - November you can enjoy seeing whales and dolphins from the view points there. The place is clean and have drinking water facilities and washrooms too. You can reach the most easterly point of Australia mainland from the walking track. View of the ocean is amazing. I had a wonderful time there, watching waves and listening to bird songs..❤️

Just beautiful. The loop is 3,6km or 4,2 if you do the last little bit in trail. Obviously touristy, but we did in winter with good weather and not many people were there. Just at the lighthouse was a bit more, but still extremely enjoyable. Definitely worth it. We spotted many whales and dolphins

Sensational. Absolutely sensational. Oh… it was a bloody challenge and not for those with knee or back issues but it was a GREAT walk! Dragged 4 kids along who managed the walk we did from ‘The Pass’ to the lighthouse and back. Many steps. Steep gradients. Lots of chairs and rest stop areas along the way. Very glad we did it if only this section. Saw lizards, koalas, and whales!!!!!!!!

We walked the Cape Byron Walking track circuit, starting at the Palm Valley carpark. The track up to the most easterly point and the lighthouse hugs the coastline. The track is fully paved and concreted up to the Lighthouse, with steps and some steep inclines. There are many places to stop and catch your breath if needed. We experienced incredible views and we lost count of the amount of whales frolicking in the waters, near and a far. There is a small cafe at the top and toilets as well. On the way back we continued on to the Tallow Ridge track. This track is not paved and whilst the views are not out to the ocean, the rainforest is beautiful to walk through. There are stairs, as well as flat bush tracks. This part of the track could be a little slippery in the wet. A much quieter track and a beautiful walk. The Tallow Ridge track may be a little hard for smaller children due to the steepness of some of the stair heights.

We enjoyed the Cape Byron Walking Track. The views were stunning, and the path was well-kept and easy to follow. I stopped at a few lookouts and just soaked it all in. A great spot for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy some amazing ocean scenery.

A beautiful sea view walk. Make sure you look out for the dolphins or whales that I believe swim around the bays. I saw some cool wildlife and the views from the lighthouse are beautiful. It’s a bit of a difficult walk and contains some steep stairs but worth it if you can manage.

For those new to the area, pay no attention to the "Open/Closed" indicator within Google Maps for this location!! It's simply a very nice and well maintained coastal track with great views and without entrance gates -- so it's always open! It even has a very nice (unexpected) cafe along the track called "The Pass Cafe"!
