Life Savers Demo

Life savers, as in lifeguards, not the colorful sweet round candies.

Aussies enjoy a an active outdoor lifestyle and Bondi Beach is probably the most well known of Sydney’s 37 beaches. Still a mecca for sunbathers and surfers, this long wide stretch of sand attracts many visitors and is also a great place to do some people watching. You can soak up some sun, swim, jog. Or just take in the cool beachsdie vibe as you indulge in an ice cream.

 

 

bondi-life-savers-5A company called Let’s Go Surfing offers  small group and indiviudal surf lessons here. The staff is friendly and professional as they demonstrate lifesaving techniques and teach basic surfing skills to beginners. Instruction begins on the sand and then takes to the shallower water. They also assist experienced surfers with “catching the big ones”. All necessary equipment is provided.

 Afterwards, a delicious fresh seafood lunch at Nick’s awaits at the edge of the beach.

If you prefer smaller, more secluded beaches, there are others to choose from, accessible by bus or ferry.
