Bondi is one of the most famous beaches in the world, and one of Australia's most iconic, so visitors should be prepared to share the sand with plenty of other eager sunbathers. The beach also boasts great waves, which is why it continues to draws local surfers.

Even if you're not much of a beach-goer, you'll still want to go to explore the cute cafés and boutiques that border the beach. And you won't want to miss a glimpse of the famous Bondi Icebergs Pool, which juts right out over the ocean.
