AUSTRALIAN CITY HIKES
BONDI TO COOGEE WALK, SYDNEY
Explore two of Sydney’s most famous beaches on this beloved 4-mile (6km) paved
urban trail. Start in Bondi, the pin-up model of Sydney beaches, with a bracing
swim in the blue-green surf and an exploration of the tidal pools on the
northeastern rocks. From here you’ll wind south along a clifftop path edging
Sydney’s posh eastern suburbs. Heading out of Bondi, don’t miss the Aboriginal
rock carving of a shark or whale on your left. About 15 minutes later you’ll hit the
beach town of Tamarama, home to the tanned and toned surf set. A bit further on,
at Bronte, check out the ‘bogey hole’ (rock pool) on the beach’s south end. Ramble
another mile or so along the rocky, scrub-covered cliffs to Clovelly Beach, working
up a bit of a sweat on the steep stairs, then on to busy Coogee. Celebrate with a
dip in one of the beach’s aqua rock pools and a beer at one of the cafes set back
from the sand.
