Byron Bay Air, Helicopter & Balloon Tours — Byron Bay, although referred to historically as Cavvanbah ('meeting place') by local Aboriginals, received its modern name from the famous Captain Cook who passed through the area back in 1770. Upon harboring near Cape Byron, the captain bestowed the name on the cape specifically in honor of John Byron, a Vice Admiral in the Royal Navy. However, it wasn't until 1894 that Cavvanbah officially became known as Byron Bay.
