Essentials about the Bondi to Bronte Coastal Walk in brief

Sydney has many beautiful walks and viewpoints. But the Bondi to Bronte Coastal Walk is certainly one of the most spectacular routes in the city and offers breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, the coast and Sydney’s beaches. And if you’re lucky, you might even spot a few whales or dolphins in the water.

The sections of the Bondi to Bronte Coastal Walk

Mackenzies Bay

As the name suggests, the Bondi to Bronte Coastal Walk starts at the legendary Bondi Beach and heads south along the Pacific coast. After about half a kilometer you reach Mackenzies Bay, a small rocky bay that turns into a beach every few years. According to legend, this happens every seven years, but this has not been scientifically proven.

Tamarama Beach

After about a kilometer, you reach Tamarama Beach, which the locals like to call “Glamarama” because of the many beautiful people who go sunbathing here. Tamarama is a relatively small beach, but popular with surfers and beach volleyball players. Due to the strong surf, swimming is rather not recommended. Just behind the beach is Tamarama Beach Park, a popular picnic and BBQ location.

In the coastal section between Bondi and Tamarama Beach, the very famous Sculpture by the Sea event takes place every year at the end of October and beginning of November. This is Australia’s largest temporary exhibition of sculptures in public spaces, with around 100 works by Australian and international sculptors on display against the magnificent backdrop of the cliffs and the ocean.

Bronte Beach

After about another half kilometer, you finally reach the destination of the Bondi to Bronte Coastal Walk, Bronte Beach. It is larger than Tamarama Beach and very popular especially with families. Here too, however, caution is advised when swimming due to dangerous currents. If you want to swim safely, you can do so at the famous Bronte Rock Pool at the southern end of the beach. Just behind the beach is the large Bronte Park, which with its meadows is a perfect area for picnics and BBQs. There are also some pretty hip cafes in the Bronte area that are worth hanging out at for a bit.
