Ballina: Relax in one of Australia’s premier coastal gateways

Ballina is known for a lot of things, but it claims a majority of its fame as the gateway to Byron Bay. Ballina is part of what many consider the most iconic stretch of coastline in Australia. And with stunning white sand beaches and excellent surf, it isn’t hard to see where that reputation came from!

But that’s not all the area has on offer. It also has excellent historical attractions like the Richmond River Lighthouse, and geographical attractions like the easternmost point of the Australian mainland. However, there is not a great deal of public transport available, which is why Car Australia offers direct, door-to-door transport options. All you need to do is choose a destination!
