The original inhabitants of Byron Bay called it "Cavanbah" which was the local Aborigines name for meeting place. Today people from all over the world come to Byron Bay to meet and enjoy the subtropical climate, the breathtaking natural beauty, and the diverse mix of visitors and residents from millionaires to mystics, surfers and alternative lifestylers.

Byron Bay has clean air, clean water, and pristine beaches. A walk to the Lighthouse at Cape Byron (Australia's most easterly point) takes in some of the most stunning coastal views anywhere in the world. Between May and October whales frolic in the ocean on their annual journey. A trip to the hinterland takes you to beautiful, lush coastal rainforest country.

The Central Byron Bay Area

Ed Silk Real Estate is located in the heart of Byron Bay, at 8 Lawson Street.

You can come to Byron Bay by plane (to Ballina and Coolangatta), by train, car and bus, either to holiday or to live in a more laid back fashion than in the city. Many people have combined a seachange lifestyle in Byron with work on-line or part time elsewhere.

Byron Bay is also a mecca for alternative health and new age spiritual practitioners. The area truly offers something for everyone. It is unpretentious, friendly, tolerant, open, fun, deep and very, very beautiful. The team at Ed Silk Real Estate welcomes you to our home.
