Tyndale is a locality in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales. The locality is bounded on the west by the lower reaches of the Coldstream River, then downstream of its confluence, Tyndale is on the south (right) bank of the South Arm of the Clarence River. Since 2020, the Pacific Highway traverses south–north through the locality, bypassing east of the town. The former alignment is now called the Big River Way, adjacent to the town and river.

Tyndale had a school which opened in 1868 and closed in 1975. A weatherboard church was opened on 21 August 1881. [2] The town has a motel, caravan park and roadhouse serving tourists at the southern end of the sugar cane fields. [3]
