Bondi Beach




It's easy not to like Bondi because in summer it's full of backpackers. Behind the beach there's a shallow park and behind that there's Campbell Parade with it's horrible concrete road and horrible concrete shops and at least half of the people who come to Bondi come here to be seen.

Still, there's no denying it's a beautiful beach; the sand is powdery and the sea is clear. They say it's netted against sharks but we have it on good authority that the net is incomplete and that the sharks they do catch in the net are almost always swimming away from the shore rather than towards it.

Fancy a dip, anyone?
