Bondi Beach

Bondi Beach is undoubtedly one of Sydney’s most famous destinations and is popular with visitors and locals all year round.

Best known for its turquoise blue waters and pristine sands, this beach marks the location where the waters of the Pacific meet with a beautiful white sand beach, creating an excellent background for a memorable vacation.

The main beach area is in front of the Bondi Pavilion, where visitors are encouraged to dip in the sea and swim between the red and yellow flags. Walk along the Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk, where you may spot a whale between May and November.

Surfers come all year round to try their luck at Bondi Beach, and surfing lessons are available on-site for those willing to learn. You can rent a board and wetsuit right on the beach and some of the stores across the road. Change rooms, showers, and toilets are available on-site, making it a great place to swim and head out of town. There are also lockers available for hire for a small fee.

Many restaurants and cafes are located across the road from the beach, with many restaurants opening early in the morning and remaining open late into the evening. You will also find ice-creameries, laid-back bars and fine-dining venues.

Bondi Beach also hosts many events throughout the year, including the Festival of the Winds, the North Bondi Surf Classic, Sculpture by the Sea, and Christmas Day, when travellers flock to the beach to enjoy a summertime Christmas. Alcohol is not permitted on the beach at any time.

You can get to Bondi Beach by driving (although there is limited parking), catching a train to Bondi Junction (a 2km walk to the beach), or taking the red Metro bus, number 40, from Chatswood via Wynyard, Town Hall, Museum, and Paddington, which terminates in Bondi Junction.
