The Magical Quest


A New Family Adventure Awaits

Something magical is stirring at Crystal Castle, in the beautiful Byron Bay hinterland.

You’re invited to embark on The Magical Quest. It’s an imaginative journey of hidden clues and crystal friends. Look closely, follow the trail, and let your curiosity lead the way.

The Magical Quest

A gentle, imagination-led experience for children aged 2+, their friends, parents and grandparents, The Magical Quest is the perfect day out in nature together.

Set amongst ancient crystals and flowering gardens, The Magical Quest follows a playful trail.

On arrival, you’ll receive an illustrated map. Follow the path to uncover the clues. Solve simple riddles along the way and unlock a mystery prize at the end.

The Ideal Family Day Out

Crystal Castle & Shambhala Gardens is located in the heart of the Byron Bay hinterland, just 20 minutes from Byron Bay and 45 minutes south of Gold Coast Airport. We’re open every day. 

Suitable for children 2 years +, the new Magical Quest is pram and wheelchair friendly, and is included free with any entry pass. This includes the value-packed Family Day Pass.

During your visit, you’ll also find a fun playground with climbing frames, a cubby house, sand pit and a big crystal dragon to climb on.

There’s organic coffee and plenty of nourishing snacks, vegetarian meals and sweet treats at our Lotus Café, which has the best views in Byron Bay.

Top off an unforgettable day out and take home a meaningful keepsake from Castle Jewels.
