Tamarama And Bronte Walkers Keep The Coastal Track Busy Through Winter

The Bondi to Coogee coastal walk continues to draw steady winter traffic, with Tamarama and Bronte the busiest middle stretches on weekends.

Coastal walk between Tamarama and Bronte on a cool winter morning.

The Bondi to Coogee coastal walk remains one of the most-used recreational paths in the eastern suburbs, and the section through Tamarama and Bronte tends to be the most congested point on cool, clear weekends.

Locals using the path for fitness often start before sunrise to avoid school groups, prams and visitors taking photos at the headland lookouts.

Tamarama beach itself stays popular with surfers through winter when the swell direction suits, while Bronte attracts swimmers using the ocean pool and the bogey hole at the south end.

Council reminds walkers that some sections of the path are narrow and uneven, particularly between Mackenzies Point and Tamarama, and that running headphones-out helps avoid collisions in the busiest stretches.

The full Bondi to Coogee walk takes most people about an hour each way at a steady pace, though stopping for coffee at Bronte or Clovelly easily turns it into a half-day.
