About Bondi Beach

Boards under arms, people in swimwear and cafes near the sand set the pace at Bondi. Walk the promenade before settling in; looking from one end helps you understand the shape of the beach.

To go in the water, look for the red and yellow flags while the beach is patrolled and follow the lifeguards. If conditions are not right for swimming, stick to the plan of sand, coffee and a walk. Your afternoon does not depend on convincing the waves to cooperate.
