Bronte Beach, Australia

Smaller than Bondi, Bronte is nonetheless appealing, with its soft yellow / white sands. The beach is seen by Sydneysiders as a pleasant choice when wanting to get away from the other, more busier beaches, found on the city’s east coast.

Surf Life Saving Club

There is also a life saving club there, so on patrolled days you can enjoy safe swimming between the flags.

Bronte Park

The delightful park adjoining the beach has not only picnic facilities, but gas BBQ’s, great for a family day out at the beach. There is also a café serving coffee and light meals.

There is a small creek that runs through the park, feeding the trees and bushland that is now Bronte Park. Created in 1887, the park now is still as popular as ever with the locals and visitors.

Things to Do

At the beach, there is a rock pool for swimmers. Bronte is also popular with SCUBA divers and surfers.

Starting at the end of Bronte Beach and extending all the way to the Coogee rock baths, and up to 100 yards from the shore is the Bronte-Coogee Aquatic Reserve.

Popular activities here besides scuba include snorkelling, boating and fishing. There are limits to fishing here, for example, you cannot fish for blue groper.
