Why should people visit Bondi Beach? Well I have to make a travel brochure as a assignment for humanities and this is what I got so far for Why people should visit Bondi Beach. Throughout the beaches in Australia, Bondi is the most visited beach out there. Bondi is also well known all around the world for the one kilometre long, sandy beach as well as the surf. It is a popular tourist attraction, so in summer the beach is filled with thousands of people. The beach is patrolled by professional lifeguards who would be there at the sign of danger and make sure swimmers stay between the yellow and red flags. Your visit at Bondi would feel safe at all times. Not only that but there are cafes and restaurants nearby, so you could enjoy a swim and head out to eat somewhere close by. There are also accommodations nearby so you could have a comfortable stay with a great ocean view. Bondi is located in Sydney, New South Wales on the south east coast… Now I don't even know what to write any suggestions on how to fix and improve this? :D

What was Indian team doing at BONDI BEACH holmes? How did it help towin the Perth match holmes ? Orale vato! Hakuna Matata!

They played beach bolleyball at BONDI BEACH and that helped them becasue holmes you know that mood was not great in Indian camp after Sydney fiasco. I think the visit to BONDI BEACH helped them mentally a lot holmes. They enjoyed there a lot so they became happy hgolmes, they became happy. What you think holmes? What the did at BONDI BEACH ?

What are my chances of becoming a lifeguard at Bondi Beach? Hi there! I'm interested in becoming a lifeguard or marine biologist....i would like to go to Australia for college (thinking about James cook University) And depending on how things go i might want to become a lifeguard instead of a marine biologist (maybe at bondi beach, maybe another beach) Im a very good swimmer; i've been swimming since i was two years old and i am on two swim teams (one for my school, one for a club team) Im a surfer, and i just got my scuba diving license. So i guess you could say im like a fish haha. Anyways, I had never really thought about becoming a lifeguard until the past couple weeks, since i started watching a show called Bondi Rescue on youtube (i dont live in australia; i live in California, but i really like australia it just seems like the perfect place for me; great beaches, great marine life/various animals, and here in california everyone is obsessed with looks and celebrities and what not...and it seems like people in australia dont really think like that; you can tell me if im wrong haha). I read that you have to have various types of certifications in order to become a lifeguard at bondi beach, or other beaches, which i could accomplish..but im only 15, and if i do get all the certifications and move to australia when im like 18 or 19, do you think i would have a good chance of becoming a lifeguard (at Bondi or any other beach)? Also, im a girl, which, i know only one girl is a lifeguard at bondi, so does that affect my chances as well? One more thing; if you have time, and youre in the mood to answer a lot of questions, i have a couple other questions about Australia; but you dont have to answer these if you dont want to... 1. do you generally refer to the fall season as 'fall' or 'autumn'? 2. About how long would it take someone to go from Townsville, Australia to Sydney, Australia...(hours, minutes, etc)? Please provide as much info as possible about the question/ any other info about australia. Thank you for reading this, and thanks so much to everyone who answers! :)

Should I move to Manly or Bondi Beach? I am moving to a Sydney from the US in a couple months and am trying to figure out where exactly I should live. I am definitely keen on the idea of living in a beach neighborhood - and Manly and Bondi are the 2 beaches that I hear about the most! I need some more info and help on deciding which one would be a better fit for me (or if you think there is a better beach area than those 2, let me know as well)...here are some things to factor into my decision: - Commute. The shorter my commute to work is, the better (obviously!) I almost definitely wouldn't want to have a commute more than an hour, and a 45-minute or especially a half-hour commute would be nice. My office will be in North Sydney (5 Blue Street to be exact). I'm not sure I would have a car, so my commuting options would either be a ferry, bus, or train. - Type of people. While I like to go out and have fun, I am a little bit more down-to-earth, so I might not like a beach that is overly pretentious or trendy. From what I've read so far, Manly might be better than Bondi in this regard, but I wouldn't mind more insight on this. - Things to do. I definitely want an area that has a pretty good amount of nightlife, restaurants, shops, sports and beach activities, etc. - Also, other things to consider: I am 30 years old but still like to go out a decent amount at night - but am hoping for an area that has a great nightlife but with a lot of young professionals in their mid-late 20s or early 30s....and not dominated by students and other people in their young 20s. Also, it wouldn't hurt if the suburb I'm in I can get to other fun areas of the city pretty easily. Thanks for your help! Any specifics as to why you think one beach would be a better fit for me, over the other beach, I would greatly appreciate!!! :)

Day 1 Begins early 8am ish, head to Darling Harbour, check out the Royal Botanical Gardens, Art Gallery of New South Wales, shops, restaurant the opera house, walk over the harbour bridge (not doing the climb, on a tight budget. Once over the bridge, i draw a blank? I know I've been in some cities when you cross the bridge their ain't too much, so any suggestions at this point? Night 1 the Aquarium. Cost: $62.00 ASD (aquarium) Day 2 The blue mountains, want to see Katoomba falls, this fall aboutaustralia.com/a2it_package/… the caves, and whatever wildlife we can spot. Ok, question 1, walk way, cable way, sky ride? Can we get by with just a rental car and good hiking shoes? Speaking of rental cars, looks like cost of the train is over $40ASD each, so logic tells me we should just rent a car? We'd like to get there at sunrise, leave at sunset (can we do that stuff in that time?). Back to Sydney, night 2, bars! Cost $80-??? ASD (car or train+bus) Day 3 Assuming we rented the car... UIuru, Hunter Valley for the wine stuff, or Jervis Bay, whale watch or just enjoy an isolated beach. Probable overnight stay here. COST: Rental Car. Day 4 Return the car. Take the ferry to Manly beach, do the Manly to spit bridge walk. I know it's August, but i'm thinking of doing it polar bear style and jumping in some of the rock pools along the way if applicable. Okay we're at the spit bridge, now what? Night 3, dinner or drinks around the rocks. Cost: $14.00 ASD Manly Ferry Day 5 Back to the beach, from central station take the 374 bus to Coogee Beach (no transfers right?) head to Coogee, walk to Bondi Beach. Put on my polar bear costume, rent surf board and wet suit, brave the water for whatever I can tolerate. Anything else while here? Take bus back to darling harbour. Night 5 Kings Cross. Bus best bet here for transport? Cost: $8 transport, $25 wet suit and board rental Day 6 Suggestions welcome? Night 6, looking for some romantic suggestions, nice evening walk, good restaurant? etc. Day 7 OPEN in case new stuff pops up. Day 8 Enjoy Darling Harbour till about 1pm before Returning to United States. Cost: Don't know. Additional ?'s August what time is sunset? Is the 7 day pass worth it based on my itinerary, or do you think it's better to pay as we go? What's the best option for currency exchange (got screwed not doing my homework for this in Tokyo)?

Would you drive to Melbourne, or fly there? What would you do in Sydney? Do you think going to Ayer's Rock is worth the time and money? By the way, my budget is around 2000-3500 AUS dollars, though I don't know if this is being practical or not. Your input would be greatly appreciated (and probably followed!)! Thanks! We like shopping, maybe do some crazy things (on the safe side), watch the sunset, sort of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants kind of stuff, fyi.

Places to go in Sydney? Going to Sydney + Gold Coast for a month in November, and would like to know if there's any tourist attractions I've missed? I have been to both places before, but I'm wondering what I haven't explored and should. I'm staying on Bondi, and I know all about Bondi beach + junction so no need to suggest that one. ;D Is there anywhere in particular I should go to other than QVB/Luna park/Opera house? Can someone give me a little more info about the Opera house too please? I just want to go have a look inside, does it cost? I've been to the aquarium, didn't find it that interesting. :/ Are there any good stops on the monorail? Thanks so much. :)

See Sydney In 4 Days? Is it possible? (CLick here: More Follow up questions)? Would it be better if we go with a Tour like with a tour guide or just explore with no tour guide? Is it smart to leave out the Sydney Tower In our itinerary? If yes what could somewhat replace ? The visit of Sydney Tower? Are any of the beaches worth visiting even if it's winter, not necessarily to swim? And possibly the Bondi to Coogee Walk? For People from a different country, How much layers of clothing do you suggest? At the Very least?

Help!! Young couple moving to Sydney from uk? Hi, Me n my boyfriend are moving to Sydney n aug, we're both mid 20s with no major commitments, so looking to have the time of our lives. We were originally considering moving to Melbourne due to my career, ladieswear designer but have been since recommended that Sydney is Auz's fashion district. We're looking for a pretty, trendy sort of area, nice restaurants, shops with night life at a stones throw. Kinda metropolitan feel. We also really like the idea of living near the beach but keep getting told to avoid Bondi n Coogee as they heavily geared towards tourists and are a bit tacky.... Is this true? We're completely open to any suggestions cos at the minute we're very confused...Help!

Why was there a man dressed as "Darth Vader" following the Pope around at Bondi Beach today? Why do some idiots want to ruin everything, i'm not even Catholic, but why do some fools want to run around the beaches and cities handing out condoms as a protest against the Pope being in Sydney? I thought new laws were passed forbidding people to demonstrate aginst the Pope's arrival here oh well not real 'constitutional' is it?.....

Where should I travel around Australia.. And WHY? I'm currently living in Gold Coast, Australia until July 1st becuase I'm studying abroad. I came here with the intention of traveling all over Australia and maybe Fiji and New Zealand.. but now i'm asking myself, what's the point?? I'm going to Sydney in a couple weeks because i've always wanted to checkout the opera house, bondi beach, etc.. but besides that, I just don't see the point. Here in Gold Coast, we have really nice beaches, so many great nightclubs, cool shopping, I'm never bored here. I LOVE THE GOLD COAST!! So anyway, why would I want to travel anywhere else? What could I find somewhere else in Australia that I can't find right here in Gold Coast? For example, why should I visit Melbourne? Fiji? Newcastle?.. if you can think of a convincing reason i'll probably go, I just want the motivation in my mind to know I'm traveling for another reason then to just check out another beach or another nightclub. Thanks!!!
