Sydney's Attractions - Bondi Beach and Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Bondi Beach is Sydney's closest ocean beach to the City. Bondi is also one of the few beach suburbs to boast a train station (Bondi Junction), well almost, you still have bus some of the way. Coogee, the second most popular beach in the Eastern Suburbs, is a (long but pleasant) walking distance from Bondi. Popular with backpackers Coogee has an atmosphere and a vibrancy all of its own. Quieter Mabroubra offers great surfing and a more traditional Australian atmosphere.

21 Bondi Beach

The Peoples Beach. Ask someone to name the first beach they can think of and Bondi Beach would be a likely response. Bondi Beach is home to a diverse crowd, and Bondi does get crowded at times. Head for the Bondi Pavilion about half way across the beach. There you should find drinks and sustenance closest to the surf.

Bondi Pavilion

When its open, the Bondi Pavilion Balcony is a neat place to watch the waves, wavers and other passer-bys. There is a bar upstairs allowing you to take drinks out onto the balcony but opening times vary. The Bondi Pavilion is home to exhibits and theatrical performances, particularly during the Sydney Festival. Some are fun and some aren’t but they are often short and you can take your drinks in with you.

Surf The Waves at Bondi Beach

If you want you can try your hand at surfing at Bondi Beach. Alternatively have a splash and try your body at body surfing. If you have no inclination to get wet you can just stroll on or along side Bondi Beach...
