Surf and Sun

Around Sydney's beaches

It has been suggested to me that Sydney, in the summer season, is the backpackers destination of choice because of the three S’s.  Surf, Sun and I will leave the third one up to you to imagine.  And when we are talking about Surf and Sun, surely Bondi Beach is the first Sydney destination that springs to mind?  "Bondi" or "Boondi" is an Aboriginal word meaning water breaking over rocks or noise of water breaking over rocks.When you decide to go to the beach, please remember that until very recently, Australia had the reputation of being the worst country for Melanoma’s skin cancer. 

​Our cousins across the pond in New Zealand don’t like us Aussies being better than them so now they hold the number 1 spot so remember to ‘Slip; Slap and Slop’  (Cover up, put on a hat, and use sun tan cream)
