Richmond River, Ballina
It’s no surprise that this region, with more than 250 days of sunshine each year on average, and its year round mild and subtropical climate, is one of Australia’s favourite holiday destinations.
Although we have to say that it also gets it’s fair share of rain … well … it is rainforest country!
Whether it’s the beach or the bush, you’ll find that our towns and villages are a great place to relax and unwind with loved ones, or to get out and about, reconnect and enjoy the natural attractions of the region.
And, if you want a more active or adventurous holiday, there are plenty ways to get an adrenalin kick!
Shopaholics will love the range of retail therapy.
The Channon weekend market, 2nd Sunday of the month.
From the glitz and glamour of the Gold Coast to the unique stylings of the region’s artisans and craftspeople, you’re sure to find that special memento of your visit here, from the wide range of retail shops. Or sample the local flavour and check out a nearby weekend market.
