# How To Get Around Byron Bay

**Getting Around in Byron**

Byron Bay might be the only town where you might see all in the same day people getting around on a 1950’s cruiser bicycle with a surf board strapped to the side, a fancy sports car, a double decker bus covered in flowers, 5 campervans in a row and 200 naked people on push bikes. Don’t worry about the naked people that’s just 1 day out of the year for The *World Naked Bike Ride**.* We have created an easy to follow guide to transporting yourself around town and beyond however you want to do it.

**First, getting to Byron:**

Byron is a 2-hour drive from Brisbane and 1-hour from Gold Coast. Drive yourself or shuttle buses are a great way to get from the Brisbane, Gold Coast and Ballina airports. Most can even drop you here at your accommodation at Byron Palms.

**Getting around town:**

We are lucky to be only a 7 minutes walk from town centre and 10 to the beach.   
Parking is $4p/h in the CDB. Other than walking, here are some other great options for getting around town: 

- Byron Taxi: [Go Byron](https://gobyron.com.au) (02) 6685 5008 our only taxi company. Servicing 24/7
- Uber: Uber has just started to take of in Byron. 
- Hiring a bike from [Surf and Bike hire](http://www.byronbaysurfandbikehire.com.au/) from $10 a day. Even Tandem bikes! 

 

**Hiring a Car:**

 There are so many advantages in having a car in Byron because of all the things to do and see in the wider area:

- [Simmons Byron Bay](http://www.simmonsbyronbay.com.au/Car-Hire) is located at the service station at the round about coming into the CBD.
- [Hertz](http://www.avis.com.au) Byron bay is located in town at 5 Marvell St.

**Blanches Bus service:**

[https://blanchs.com.au/](https://blanchs.com.au/h) has all the timetables and more details if you would like to plan a bus trip to one of our neighbouring towns. Just make sure you get the times right because they don’t run often.
