Bondi Beach has 2 large parking areas right next to the beach. Parking is a bit pricey here but at least youre close to everything. Plenty of buses depart from CBD and Bondi Junction to Bondi.
The first part of the Bondi to Bronte walk officially starts at Notts Avenue, close to the famous Bondi Icebergs Club. You can get here by walking south, past Bondi Park, away from Bondi Beach.
The Bondi To Bronte walk is a truly unique experience and the iconic beaches and coastal views are simply unparalleled. The walk is fairly easy to do, with well-marked pathways with some inclines and a few steep parts. Along the trail are lots of cafes, restaurants, toilets and showers, pools and parks.
If you still have enough energy after arriving in Bronte, you can continue the coastal walking trail all the way to Maroubra. This part of the hike features the famous Waverley cemetery, Clovelly Beach with excellent snorkeling conditions, Gordons Bay, beautiful Coogee Beach and surfing hot-spot Maroubra.
Bondi Icebergs Club
Bondi Icebergs is a landmark in Bondi where you can enjoy a great meal and a cold drink against the backdrop of the ocean. Just as iconic is the Bondi Icebergs Pool, located literally right next to the ocean. Swimming in this historic pool is popular all year round, even in winter when die-hard locals happily do their laps.
From Bondi Icebergs you start your walk on a concrete waterfront walkway that will give you a good taste of all the goodness thats to come. From here you’ll enjoy beautiful views over Bondi Beach and North Bondi.
Climb up the stairs at the end of the walkway, and you’ll get to a lookout point offering amazing views far north as well as south.
