After the tour, return to your accommodation where you can participate in various hostel activities, such as yoga, drum circles, didgeridoo carving, and poi lessons. Alternatively, indulge in a delectable acai bowl at our favorite spot, Combi Byron Bay, or treat yourself to the best burgers in town at Main Street Burger Bar.
