Unspoiled by development, timber bridges link the colourful village to a safe, gentle river beach called Torakina Beach and the spectacular South Wall, great for fishing, the Brunswick surf beach to the South that spans the coastline all the way to Byron Bay.
Brunswick Surf Life Saving Club is manned during summer, all week. Remember to swim between the flags for safety, the surf can be unpredictable. This is foodie heaven! You’re spoiled with choice of 25 eateries, from hip cafes to award-winning restaurants, all serving inspired food and the freshest local produce. Enjoy a sun downer and live music at one of Australia’s best beer gardens at the iconic Hotel Brunswick. After 30 years the curtain is lifted on the Brunswick Picture House with family friendly movies and a monthly ‘Cheeky Cabaret’ for parents and grandparents to enjoy. A truly ‘all round’ holiday experience reminiscent of the simple family holidays we used to enjoy with a bit extra thrown in. The Brunswick Heads Fairy Trail is a delight for children and adults alike. Fairies love to holiday in Bruns too. Follow the clues, available from the Brunswick Heads Visitor Centre, to find more than 20 unique fairy houses hidden around town. Another favourite with the kids is Torakina Beach with its shady nooks that make swimming in the gentle and protected waters of Torakina, inside the river mouth, feel like a tropical haven as you enjoy the vibrant colours through the crystal clear waters in the Brunswick River.
