Bondi Beach Blows?




The most famous beach in New South Whales is Bondi Beach. Of course we had never heard of it before arriving here, but hey- what do we ignorant Americans know? Bondi Beach is on the must see list of every informational brochure, tour guide, or book on Australia. So off we went for a cloudy day at the famous Bondi.

A train ride, bus ride, and walk later we both stood dumbfounded- is this seriously it?? Don’t believe the hype people, Bondi Beach is not all its cracked up to be. A beach surrounded by concrete and an endless parking lot, completed with a trashy main drag. The run down surf shops and cafes left little for the heart to desire and we quickly headed home.

Our recommendation: If you find yourself in Sydney and want some beach time, head to Manly Beach.
