NSW Far North Coast
Sky Diving
Is free falling your idea of fun? Get your endorphins sky high with a Sky Dive across the beautiful Byron Bay for some of the best sky diving in NSW. Dropping from an altitude of 15,000ft you will be able to take in the sights of the amazing beaches and spectacular hinterland ranges all the way to Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
Hang Gliding
Take a tandem flight over Byron Bay’s coastal National Park and take in the lighthouse from a bird’s eye view. Feel freedom at its best as you watch for the coastal wildlife including sea eagles, turtles, dolphins and even the occasional humpback whale.
Take a Hot Air Balloon ride
For something a little less terrifying, a hot air balloon ride over the Byron Bay hinterland could be the adventure you are looking for. You can still get your head in the clouds, but you’ll have more time to take in the breath taking scenery with a loved one or your family as the sun comes up over the Northern Rivers. Finish the morning with a glass of champagne and continue with your adventurous getaway.
To get the most out of all the activities in the Byron Bay region, stay at one of the Reflections Parks in Brunswick Heads or Byron itself. You have the choice of Massy Greene, Ferry Reserve and Terrace Reserve in the calm of Brunswick Heads, but also offering enough to keep you excited with the great surf and water activities.
For the adventures close to town in Byron Bay then check in to Reflections Byron Bay. Not far from the town centre, you can walk or peddle to come of the local attractions as well as some of the best spots for lunch and dinner.
NSW Coffs Coast
Segway Tour
Ride through the bush and get back to nature with an adventure packed Segway tour on the Coffs Coast. This a great chance for the whole family to enjoy an action packed activity while on a holiday. The guided tours are a great option for the mini adventure junkies and parents as well!
Tree Tops Adventure
Test your limits with a high ropes course that might just make your stomach drop! Experience the Australian bush and get up close and personal with the wildlife as you jump from height to height and fly on the zip lines as you adventure through over 100 obstacles. Suitable for 10 years and over – this will challenge everyone and get your heart racing!
Water Sports
Kilometres of coastline means the possibilities are almost endless when it comes to adventures and water sports on the Coffs Coast. Whether you have a boat, jetski or SUP surfboard, adrenalin junkies love the coastline! Hire a jet ski if you don’t have your own and ride the waves with dolphins and enjoy the most of the outdoors. For something at a more leisurely pace, try stand up paddle boarding at Boambee Creek Reserve.
The Coffs Coast is the perfect place to get the most out of what NSW East Coast has on offer for adrenaline junkies and families. Just south of Coffs you’ll find Urunga, Mylestom and Hungry Head which captures the best of nature on the east coast. To be completely central and close to town, stay at Reflections Coffs Harbour where you’ll be able to walk to everything nearby. A little farther north you’ll find pristine coastline and our Moonee, Corinidi and Red Rock parks.
