Brunswick Heads

Introduction

In the shadows of Mt Chincogan and Mt Warning, on the mouth of Brunswick River is the laidback fishing village of Brunswick Heads. The town surrounded by nature reserves and long white sandy beaches, was the seaside holiday destination of choice, long before Byron Bay became popular and remains a much loved secret by the locals.
