North Bondi

Harbour beaches, Nielsen Park and leafy clifftop streets at the city's polished eastern tip. Coastal, calm and made for a swim-and-stroll kind of day.

A beloved eastern beach with a grassy park and the coastal walk on tap. Salty, relaxed and made for a sea-air stroll.

Bondi-close and leafy, with Waverley Park's green and quiet village streets. Walkable, easy-going and good with a dog.

The coastal-walk icon. The sand itself is a no-dog zone, but the parks, cafes and clifftop paths above more than deliver. Come for the views, not the beach romp.

Westfield, towers and trains, with Waverley Park's green close enough to escape the rush. Busy and city-fast, but it keeps room for a dog walk.

Beside Centennial's parklands, with open green and off-leash space close by. Leafy and made for a proper run.

A tiny clifftop cove on the Bondi-to-Bronte walk, all sea air and ocean views. Salty, scenic and made for a coastal stroll.

Clifftop ocean views, leafy streets and headland parks at the city's eastern edge. Breezy, scenic and made for a coastal walk.

Sydney's most famous beach and the coastal walk that follows. Salty, lively and made for a clifftop wander.

Seaplanes overhead, harbour at your feet and Lyne Park for the foreshore amble. The east at its most relaxed — polished, breezy and good with dogs.
