Overview

One would be hard-pressed to find an outing more quintessentially 'Sydney' than the Bondi-to-Bronte Coast Walk, its length punctuated by winding markers that give the impression that it may well be endless. Instead, it is merely endlessly beautiful, particularly now that the decking has been extended and refurbished.

There is perhaps one time of the year when this coastal stroll manages to outdo itself, during the much loved Sculpture by the Sea which stretches from Tamarama to Bondi. If you can overlook the conservatism of this year's Waverley Council decency police, there are many delights to see. Each sculpture responds to the landscape in which it is situated, offering a kind of site specificity that one doesn't often get to engage with in such numbers.

Sculpture by the Sea has been steadily growing in each of its twelve years, and this year features 107 works to consider. So winning is this event, that it needs to be prefaced with a warning: it gets BUSY. Go early!
