Take a Dip<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sydney\u2019s endless sequence of world-class beaches is a popular attraction for locals and visitors alike. Although they can get crowded on warm Aussie days (some more than others), beaches like Bondi and Manly cannot be missed. Bondi is an institution in Sydney, being the closest ocean beach to the city center (8km away), and despite the swarms of people that flock to its shores daily, this beach is the perfect place to get a taste of Sydney, and have a rough and tumble swim. If the surf is too rough, then take a dip in the Bondi Icebergs pool. Located at the Southern end of the beach, this famous ocean pool can help you experience the Pacific without being tossed about. That, and it\u2019s a great spot for people watching and taking photos.<\/span><\/p>\n

Manly is Sydney\u2019s only ferry destination with surf, and is a place worth visiting for the ferry ride alone! Renown amongst the Northern Beaches community as a place for a good night out, Manly is a popular destination for both surfers and party-goers. This suburb seamlessly blends contemporary bars and eateries with consistently good waves.<\/span><\/p>\n

From Wynyard station, you can hop on the infamous L90, and on a scenic 45-minute bus ride, you\u2019ll find yourself among the coastal suburbs of Sydney\u2019s Northern Beaches. What feels like a best-kept secret, the Northern Beaches are a collection of picturesque surf spots that are much more tucked away than their well-known neighbors, Bondi and Manly. From Collaroy to the long and lovely Palm Beach, and every suburb in between boasts their own unique slice of coast that is as gorgeous as the next. If you have the time, do yourself a favor and see as many of these beaches as possible. You will not regret it. <\/span><\/p>\n
