    East Ballina has a fantastic off leash dog beach.

    East Ballina has a fantastic off leash dog beach. Good cafes and restaurants. Loads of walking tracks and clean beaches. At the end of the breakwater we saw a large pod of Dolphins and further out we could see whales breaching. Shelley Beach was the best for swimming.

    Lovely beaches with clear water and rock pools at Flat Rock. Not busy. Attractive waterfront. Walking/cycling path from Lennox to the river entrance. Good restaurants in nearby Ballina and Lennox and Shelly Beach.

    A lovely little dog-friendly location, with a massive dog off leash area and close to the dog beach en route to the pretty little riverside town of Ballina. Lots of lovely walks around Shaw’s Bay and a short drive to other interesting locations to the north and south or in the hinterland.

    Very quiet place.

    Very quiet place. We had trouble finding somewhere to eat as a family and later in the evening. Beaches weren't all patrolled - but it is just start of the season so that is understandable as well. We saw dolphins swimming.

    Ballina is a well kept secret however it has been discovered...

    Ballina is a well kept secret however it has been discovered as an alternative to the hype and bustle of Byron Bay. Coffees are still reasonably priced and there is an absence of social media wannabes posing on the beaches. I would recommend a trip to the Seven Mile Brewery for some therapeutic tonics. You might get lucky and spot a 'celebrity' zipping past on their way to their private chartered jet. The Ballina RSL is a good spot for a value feed plus some cokes, smokes and pokes. Mike Nolan is rumoured to hang out there occasionally. Have a yarn to him if you have done any damage to the rental, he'll fix it for a cashie.
