Sydney's Bondi Beach: Stunning Views and the Joy of Coastal Running!

Bondi Beach might be the most famous beach in Australia. The name 'Bondi' comes from an Aboriginal word meaning 'water breaking over rocks.' As the name suggests, besides the stunning views, it's also a paradise for countless surfing enthusiasts. I really love the vastness here. Whether it's the endless sky unobstructed by skyscrapers or the ever-deepening blue sea, I can't imagine how blissful it would be to run along the coast here every day!
