Bondi

Bondi is a great place to visit year-round. There is plenty to see and do and we've got all your information covered.

Beach safety

Follow these simple rules to be safe at the beach:

Always swim between the red and yellow flags, never swim outside them.
Do not swim directly after a meal or if under the influence of alcohol.
Only swim when the red and yellow flags are flying. If there are no flags, the beach is closed or unpatrolled.
Do not panic if caught in a current or undertow. Raise one arm into the air to signal for lifeguard assistance. Float until help arrives.
Do not struggle if seized with a cramp. Raise your arm for help and float. Keep the part of your body that is cramping perfectly still.
Do not swim if unsure of surf conditions. Always seek the advice of a lifeguard or lifesaver.
Do not struggle against a rip or current. Swim diagonally across it.

Alcohol free zones

To keep our beaches, parks and streets safe we have a number of alcohol-free zones in place throughout the year. Bondi, Tamarama and Bronte beaches and public streets are classified as alcohol-free zones. This means you are not permitted to consume alcohol in these areas.
