Introduction

Bondi Beach is Sydney's most famous city beach. Golden sand and blue waves draw surfers, sunbathers and visitors, full of easygoing Australian coastal energy. It is a symbol of Australia's surf and lifesaving culture, with lifeguards and red-and-yellow flags at both ends guarding swimmers. Beyond swimming and surfing, the Bondi to Coogee coastal walk is not to be missed, with cliffs, bays, rock pools and open sea views all along the way, one of Sydney's classic coastal hikes. Behind the beach, cafes and restaurants line the streets, lazy and relaxed.
