Inhabited by backpackers, billionaires, board riders and the body beautiful, Bondi is one of Sydney’s most eclectic and exciting precincts. A walk along its promenade gives you the chance to experience its carefree sun-drenched lifestyle.

The main thoroughfare of Campbell Parade offers a wealth of surf shops, takeaway outlets, souvenir sellers, cafés, restaurants, bars and fish and chip shops. To discover some of Sydney’s other stunning beaches, follow the boardwalk to Tamarama (also known as Glamarama), Bronte and Coogee.
