New takes on Byron
Donna Wheeler in
Shore thing: Australia's beach obsession
for Lonely Planet describes Byron thus: 'Byron Bay... can sometimes feel like a victim of its own popularity, but for most of the year its cluster of beaches and surrounding hinterland preserve an almost eerily transcendent beauty that has long inspired talk of ley lines and magic power of place.'
I anticipate many happy returns to Byron while I am living in Queensland. 'Transcendent beauty' goes some way to explaining the draw (see also Nothing beats Byron, September 2010). I will attempt to capture different elements of that specialness.
