I have lived on the coast in Sydney for six years, and I love it. Standing at a point in Maroubra, I can look north and see all the way to Bondi. The cliffs dotted with houses that seem to cling for dear life, and the half-moon white beaches make it one of the most spectacular coastlines in the world - and I have seen many.

Doing a 'coastal walk' is something locals and visitors alike love to indulge in. The paths wind and climb along cliffs, through a beautiful cemetery and, pass by each of the beaches: Long, narrow Tamarama, broad and busy Bondi, and the unusual Clovelly, more of an inlet with great snorkeling and a quiet cove of white sand. Stunning.

Great place to relax, many lifeguards around so thats a bonus especially for the woman WHOO!! Great place to swim as well, just genrally a nice day out!!
