Bondi Beach Australia is probably one of the most iconic beaches in Australia. Lets face it, you've probably watched "Bondi Rescue" on the TV and seen rugged Aussie blokes rescues damsels in distress. Or sometimes you've heard travelers telling some of their best stories about the place. Which ever it is, Bondi joins the crowds in their droves. So, is this somewhere you should be adding to your "Must Do" list or, is it all just too tacky for words.
Bondi Beach is a large horseshoe shaped beach and behind it is a row of shops and restuarants called Campbell Parade. It's probably these souvenir shops, fast food chains and the backpackers hostels that have given Bondi beach Australia it's unfortunate tacky reputation. The council has worked hard to make the area much more appealing, planting palm trees and tidying up the paving areas. Now on Christmas day, it's an alcohol free zone, stopping the backpackers from running wild and changing the vibe of the place.
On a scorching summers day, the beach is full and it's a good mixture of locals and international visitors. Go just one street back and you will discover the REAL Bondi. It's this Bondi that the locals love. It's full of wonderful boutique shops, amazing cafés and restaurants offering a wide range of great quality food.
These days you have to be pretty well off to afford to live in Bondi and the chic clientele truly reviews this. You'll find them up early for a surf before work, or relaxing in one of the laid back cafés. Brunch is a particularly Australian past-time and nobody does it better than Bondi Beach Australia! With those views and that surf, where else would you rather spend a lazy Sunday morning.
Head up Hall Street and enjoy the many cafés and side streets offering boutique clothing. Come on a Sunday and enjoy the Bondi market. Here you will find new fashions, jewelry and furniture.
So, while many still have an outdated view of Bondi Beach Australia, the reality is very different. This is a town with real class, a laid back vibe, with the added benefit of a beautiful beach. There are so many great places to eat, drink or just watch the world go by. Bondi Beach Australia should be well and definitely on your "Must Do" list.
