Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach sports a sweeping, kilometer-long curve of golden sand, between two headlands, lashed by surf waves. What makes this Eastern Beaches wonder even more unusual is it's an urban affair, combining swimming and surfing with big-city buzz. Locals love it, tourists flock here, and Bondi's massive on Instagram. Even on crowded summer weekends, you'll find a spot on the shore or lawns fringing the beach (there are barbecues at the northern reserve).
