Discover why Byron Shire's natural environment and coastline is renowned for its natural beauty, being one of the richest and most diverse regions for native plants and animals in Australia.
Our region is known to support high numbers of rare or threatened plants and animals, with approximately 70 plant species and 90 animal species recognised as vulnerable or endangered.
