Bondi Beach showing a coastal town, general coastal views and a sandy beach
The beachside ‘burb of Bondi is one of Sydney’s essentials.

Nothing short of legendary, Sydney’s surfie sidekick has long been considered the source of the city’s sparkle. Bondi Beach is a temple for sun worshippers and wave riders, where Pacific Ocean swell crashes on a crescent-shaped stretch of sand. Explore the coastal promenade and watch the pro surfers at work or hit the strip to find boutique shops and a buzzing farmers market.
