πŸ“– About Brays Beach

Brays Beach is a secluded strip of sand tucked within Broken Head Nature Reserve, south of Byron Bay, reached via a steep staircase off a bush track. Sheltered from north-easterly winds by the headland, it's a favourite with experienced surfers on mid-to-high tide southerly swells, and a stunning spot to watch waves even when flat. Its tricky access keeps crowds thin, making it one of the more peaceful beaches in the Byron area.
