Overview

YHA Cape Byron is one of the most popular Schoolies stays in Byron Bay, thanks to its unbeatable location and fun, social vibe. Sitting just around 100 metres from Byron’s main street, you’re right in the heart of everything, cafés, shops, food spots, nightlife, and all the action are literally on your doorstep.

The beach is only a few minutes’ walk away, making it easy to go from morning swims to sunset hangs without needing transport. Everything Schoolies want, beach days, town vibes, and nights out, is all within walking distance, so you can stay close, safe, and connected all week.

Inside, Cape Byron is built for social groups. There are shared spaces to hang out, a pool area, BBQ zones, and plenty of spots to chill with friends or meet other Schoolies staying at the hostel. The atmosphere is lively but organised, making it a great balance of fun and structure.

If you’re looking for a central, affordable, and social Schoolies option where you don’t need buses or long walks to get anywhere, YHA Cape Byron ticks all the boxes, close to the beach, close to town, and right in the middle of the Byron Bay Schoolies experience.
