From the moment I stepped onto the golden sand and saw those perfect turquoise waves, I knew I was in a true Aussie icon. Surfers were already out, riding smooth waves like they were born on boards, while early joggers traced the curve of the beach like a moving postcard. I didn’t surf (yet!), but just strolling along the shoreline, grabbing a smoothie, and watching the locals do their thing was such a vibe. I also walked part of the Bondi to Coogee coastal path, and the views were absolutely stunning — think cliffs, crashing waves, and breezy air that wakes up your soul. Oh, and Bondi Icebergs pool? Unreal. That ocean pool sitting right at the edge of the sea is the photo spot. Definitely a must-see, even if you don’t swim. Travel Tips and How to Get There: • Best time to visit: • Early morning for sunrise and fewer crowds, or late afternoon for golden hour • What to bring: • Sunscreen, hat, water bottle, beach towel, and comfy shoes if you’re doing the walk • Recommended experiences: • Chill at the beach and watch surfers do their magic • Snap photos at Bondi Icebergs pool • Walk the Bondi to Coogee trail — even part of it is amazing • Try a smoothie or brunch at the many hip cafés nearby • Good for: Beach lovers, surfers, photographers, walkers, anyone who needs some Vitamin Sea • Vibe: Relaxed, coastal, cool and iconic How to Get There: • By train + bus: • Take the train to Bondi Junction Station, then transfer to bus 333 or 380 straight to Bondi Beach • By car/ride share: • There’s parking, but it fills up fast — better to go early or use public transport • Pro tip: • Combine your trip with the Bondi Farmers Market (Saturdays) or Bondi Markets (Sundays) if you’re around on the weekend
