Bondi Icebergs is quite famous so you won't be the only person here but it's well worth it for the beautiful views. Go upstairs for a nice but pricey sit down dinner, otherwise you can usually find us downstairs in the RSL grabbing a beer & a bite to eat and savouring the view.

The Bondi markets are only open on the weekends from 8am - 1pm. Saturday is food day, so wander down for some amazing grub from the food stalls and sit down to enjoy it to some live music. Sunday is clothing, crafts and other local goods. You can find all kinds of great local designers and craftsmen down there. Definitely worth a wander around but fair warning you will probably end up spending some money, because if not on yourself, there's some great options for authentic souvenirs and local gems.
