Pick up your choice of Australian motorhome – the depot staff will guide you through the features before you head off on the open road. The beauty of a motorhome is that every day is a new adventure and you don’t necessarily need to plan your route beforehand, but this itinerary acts as a suggestion.

Journey north to Byron Bay where the pace of life slows down and the focus is on the unique Aussie coastal lifestyle. Relax on the sands of Byron Beach and watch the skilled surfers effortlessly ride the waves, watch the sunset from the Cape Byron Lighthouse, Australia’s most easterly point, and indulge in some of the local artisan food which can be bought from local markets.

We’ve earmarked two nights in Byron Bay, but alternatively you may wish to leave a day early to stay a night in the Gold Coast, where you’ll find 50 km of sandy beaches stretching from Coolangatta on the New South Wales border, past  Burleigh Heads and Surfers Paradise. There are also bars and restaurants aplenty and numerous theme parks and family attractions.
