Bondi to Coogee walk: best direction?

Planning a Sydney trip next week, staying in Manly and want to do the Bondi to Coogee coastal walk, spending some time at Bondi Beach. Best walking direction (Bondi to Coogee or vice-versa)? We're pr… more

Bondi to Coogee is generally preferred for the views. Starting at Bondi gives you the sun at your back for most of the walk, minimizing glare. Plus, you finish at Coogee, giving you more options for transport back to Manly (buses are more frequent from Coogee than Bondi, in my experience).

Sydney's Secret Gardens?

fmd_good Royal Botanic Garden

So, I'm heading to the Royal Botanic Garden next week. I've heard it's amazing, but all the photos online show the main areas. Anyone know about any less-visited, quieter spots within the gardens?… more

The Royal Botanic Garden is huge! You'll definitely find quiet spots if you wander away from the main paths. Try heading towards the harbour side – there are some lovely secluded areas near the ferry wharves, often overlooked. The Aboriginal Heritage Walk might be good too; it's less crowded and has a different feel altogether. Pack a good map though, or you might get properly lost amongst the palms and fig trees. Good luck with the bird spotting – I hear the kookaburras are pretty vocal in the less-trafficked sections.

Wow, thanks! The Aboriginal Heritage Walk sounds amazing, I hadn't even considered that. Getting properly lost amongst palms and fig trees... now that's my kind of adventure. Kookaburras, you say? My camera's charged and ready! A map is definitely going on the list. I appreciate the detailed tips!
