We share our must visit stops when heading down Australia's famous East Coast. itinerary

Day 1: Brisbane - Gold Coast

Gold Coast

Driving via the Gold Coast is essential, and no visit to the Gold Coast is complete without a trip to many theme parks and water parks. Another must-visit is the observation deck at SkyPoint, Australia's highest building which offers panoramic views across the city. In the evening take advantage of the stunning beaches, park up the campervan and enjoy a sunset at Burleigh Heads or Currumbin.

Day 2: Gold Coast - Byron Bay

Byron Bay

You can’t travel the East Coast without a visit to Byron Bay! You wouldn’t be in Byron if you didn’t get a little bit hippy ✌🏻 Visit the worlds biggest crystals and sit in an ancient amethyst cave. After that, what better way to spend an evening than horse riding on the beach? And finally, you can’t go to Byron and not surf. Get involved in a 2 hour beginner group surf lesson. 🏄‍♀️

Day 3: Byron Bay - Newcastle

Nimbin

Known as Australia's most hippy town, Nimbin is not too far from Byron Bay and is worth the visit. Whether you want to have your tarot read, visit some of the nearby heritage listed rainforest, reiki, or take a yoga class, there's plenty to see and do.

Yamba

Yamba has recently been declared 'The New Byron', it's far less busy but still has the nature and the surf. Visit at the right time of year and you can see turtles, dolphins, and whales. Be sure to visit Angourie Beach - one of Australia's most iconic surf spots.

Newcastle

Often missed on the backpacker route is Newcastle and the surrounding area, but it's definitely worth a visit. You can experience a once in a lifetime tandem skydive, visit Nobbys Beach, Akuna Café for the best acai bowls, Gan Gan Lookout, or have a swim in the ocean baths. You can also go on a dolphin spotting cruise from Nelson Bay. Nearby Port Stephens is also a must - visit, with plenty to do, including sandboarding.

Day 4: Newcastle - Sydney

Myall Lakes

An extremely underrated and often overlooked place is the Myall Lakes National Park area in NSW. You can camp here for the night and there’s so much to see. We recommend walking up to Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse after spending the morning at Number One Beach at Seal Rocks.

Sydney

Once you’ve successfully dropped off your relocation vehicle you’re free to enjoy Sydney! It’s not all just amazing beaches – there’s plenty more to do. (Although Bondi Beach and the ferry to Manly Beach is a must). Enjoy a scenic ferry ride and head to Taronga Zoo which has incredible Sydney skyline views. If you’re looking for an adrenaline rush and something a bit different check out the Sydney Harbour Jet Boat experience. You also have to visit the highest building in Sydney, the Sydney Tower!
