First Sun Holiday Park: Beachfront Camping in the Heart of Byron Bay

  • Written by: ByronBay24

First Sun Holiday Park Byron Bay

Finding accommodation in Byron Bay that combines a genuine beachfront location with easy access to the town centre can be difficult. First Sun Holiday Park is one of the exceptions.

Owned and operated by Byron Shire Council, the holiday park occupies a prime position on Main Beach, allowing guests to walk from their accommodation directly onto the sand while remaining only minutes from Byron Bay's cafés, restaurants, shops and attractions.

For many visitors, it is one of the most convenient places to stay in Byron Bay.

Accommodation for Every Style of Traveller

First Sun Holiday Park caters for a wide range of travellers and budgets.

Accommodation options include:

  • self-contained beachfront cabins
  • comfortable bungalows
  • powered and unpowered caravan and camping sites
  • tent sites
  • backpacker-style dormitory accommodation.

Whether travelling with a family, as a couple, with friends or exploring Australia on a backpacking adventure, there are accommodation choices to suit a variety of needs.

Leave the Car Behind

One of First Sun's biggest advantages is its location.

Guests can comfortably walk to many of Byron Bay's most popular destinations, including:

  • Main Beach directly from the holiday park
  • Jonson Street shopping precinct
  • cafés and restaurants
  • local supermarkets
  • the iconic Beach Hotel
  • nearby markets when operating.

For many visitors, the car remains parked for the duration of their stay.

Well Connected

Public transport is also close at hand.

The Byron Bay bus interchange is within easy walking distance, making it convenient to travel to surrounding towns and attractions. The Byron Solar Train station is located alongside the holiday park, providing a unique journey to North Beach and Elements of Byron.

This combination of beach access and public transport makes the park an excellent base for visitors wishing to explore the region.

Why Visitors Choose First Sun

Location is the park's greatest strength.

Few holiday parks in Australia offer genuine beachfront accommodation while also placing guests within easy walking distance of a vibrant town centre. Morning swims, beach walks, coffee, shopping and dining can all be enjoyed without needing to drive.

That convenience has made First Sun a favourite with generations of visitors returning to Byron Bay.
