I highly recommended taking a sea-kayak trip from Clarks Beach around The Pass and into Little Wategos Beach - a stone's throw off Australia's easternmost point. Byron Bay Sea Kayaks run multiple trips per day during the peak summer season (November - February), and they cost $40 per person. You will then meet up at Clarks Beach and get kitted out in life vests, helmets, and paddles, and they will take the boats down to the beach to load. The trip is about 4 hours and takes you at a leisurely pace out past the Pass, where you are likely to see dolphins (we only saw them about 100m away, since they were busy herding a school of pilchards in for a snack and weren't interested in playing with kayakers!). Once around the Pass, you paddle to Little Wategos for a snack and drink with time for a little walk up to the lookouts, etc., before heading back onto the boats for the paddle back to the Pass. No experience is necessary, and it is a great way to see 'the Bay'. For more info, email: learn@dolphinkayaking.com.au.
