Bondi Beach Self Guided Art Tour

Experience Bondi in a different way through its vibrant and ever-changing public art.

This self-guided activity takes you along the beachfront promenade, where murals, graffiti and creative installations unfold against the backdrop of the ocean - combining art, fresh air and coastal views in a route that is simple to follow and fully accessible. Wheelchair users and people with mobility devices can move comfortably and confidently throughout, without worrying about uneven terrain or difficult navigation.

The promenade stretches from Bondi Park, where the street art begins, all the way to North Bondi. Our recommendation is to start from Bondi Pavilion, which sits at the heart of the promenade and makes a natural midpoint - though where you begin will depend on where you are coming from.

The North Bondi end is particularly lively, with a skate park, a playground, and live music on Sunday afternoons. Throughout the stroll, the sound of waves crashing against the shore sets a peaceful, calming rhythm. Time it right and you will be rewarded with a stunning sunset at the northern tip.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Access features & gradient

The main promenade at Bondi Beach is wide, paved and step-free, providing a smooth and consistent surface for wheelchair users.

From public transport drop-offs along Campbell Parade, the route down to the promenade involves a gradual downhill slope (approx. 5-8% gradient).

This descent is continuous but manageable for many wheelchair users, particularly with controlled pace or assistance.

Key access points:

• From bus stops on Campbell Parade → short distance (approx. 50-150 metres) with a steady downhill gradient toward the promenade

• From Bondi Pavilion → direct, step-free access to the promenade via flat paved pathways

• Moving along the promenade → terrain remains flat and predictable till the beachfront

Access from the promenade down to the sand is limited, as there are no fully step-free permanent pathways onto the beach.
