General info: 

The Bondi to Coogee Beach Costal walk is a popular walking track that takes you past most of the city beaches and along spectacular cliff tops. The walking trip extends for six km in Sydney’s eastern suburbs. It features beautiful views, beaches, parks, cliffs, bays and rock pools. You can rest, swim or eat on the open during the trip. All beaches offer picnic shelters, electric barbecues, play areas, kiosks, toilets and change-rooms. The walk is not difficult, there are medium gradient paths and several staircases with occasional seating. It takes about two hours to complete the Bondi to Coogee Beach section and another hour and a half if you choose to continue to Maroubra.

There are six different sections of the Bondi to Coogee Beach Costal walk. One of them, the Bondi to Tamarama section, is particularly interesting because it hosts the annual Sculpture by the Sea outdoor exhibition of over a 100 artworks displayed along the coast.
