Parks & Nature

A true locals spot. Best spot for a swim or suntan within walking distance. You need to check this beautiful place out!!! The best way to access it is to walk up New South Head Road then down the stairs. Note there are a lot of stairs but it is worth it on a hot summers day. There is a kiosk there.

Bondi Beach needs no explanation. Make sure to take sunscreen, a beach towel and sunglasses. It is the heart of Sydney during the summer. Always swim between the flags. Transport: Uber is a good idea or the 323 bus service to North Bondi takes approx 25 minutes Use the app called Tripview for all public transport timetables.

This small beach has a cool European vibe. There is not a lot of sand but it is quiet and the snorkelling can be good if the wind is right.

Great to take a towel, book and sunnies. It is not the best beach for swiming because the seaweed gets blown onto the sand, rather go to Redleaf pool for a swim. But this spot is great for a sun tan.
