Bondi Beach is about one kilometre long and has receives many visitors throughout the year. Surf Life Saving Australian has given different hazard ratings to Bondi Beach in 2004. While the northern end has been rated a gentle 4 (with 10 as the most hazardous), the southern side is rated as a 7 due to a famous rip current known as the "Backpackers' Express" because of its proximity to the bus stop, and the unwillingness of tourists to walk the length of the beach to safer swimming. The south end of the beach is generally reserved for surfboard riding. Yellow and red flags define safe swimming areas, and you are advised to swim between them.
How to get there:
Take train to Bondi Junction station. Free tourist shuttles are available to bring u around the town.
It's quite a short bay, and it is not the most beautiful beach in Australia. Australians are really fond of beaches though.
Bondi Beach is a shopping heaven for surfing and swimming stuff.
There are people surfing even during winter!
Bondi Icebergs is a swimming club since 1929 and owes its origins to the desire of a band of dedicated local lifesavers who wished to maintain their fitness during the winter months
