Beaches for July for Sydney

Sydney is the perfect place to experience Australia's famous beach lifestyle as the city is surrounded by beautiful beaches and bays that are within easy reach of the downtown area.

Bondi Beach

One of Sydney's most renowned beaches is Bondi Beach. Known all over the world, it's a must-visit hotspot for holiday makers at any time. Bondi is a kilometre-long stretch of soft, golden sand where travellers can relax and soak up the sun, or learn to surf in the waves of the Pacific. One of the busiest beaches in Sydney, it's also home to a wide choice of beachside restaurants and cafés and hosts a range of events throughout the year.

Somewhat more secluded is Palm Beach, which ranks as the city's most northerly bathing spot. Overlooked by the Barrenjoey Lighthouse, Palm Beach forms a sweeping curve of gorgeous soft sand and is ideal for swimming, bathing or surfing. Less confident swimmers can take advantage of the ocean pool, located at the southern end of the beach, while there's a slew of nearby restaurants, bars and cafes to retreat to if you're looking to wind down during the afternoon and evening. 

Restaurants and Bars for Sydney in July

Sydney's food and drink scene is world-class, whether you're looking for fine-dining establishments, laidback bars or contemporary cafés.

Lovers of fine Italian food should ring ahead to reserve a table at Otto Ristorante in the centre of Sydney.

Things to Do in Sydney in July

Museum of Sydney

Sydney is a vibrant city with a wealth of attractions to explore. The Museum of Sydney  is one of the best places to start; built on the ruins of the house of New South Wales' first Governor, Arthur Phillip, this museum charts the history of Sydney, from its origins to the present day. 

Mrs. Macquarie's Chair

No visit to the city would be right without a stroll alongside the water's edge and Mrs. Macquarie's Chair surely deserves its reputation as one of the most photogenic spots in the Sydney Harbour. Walk through the Botanical Gardens and up to Mrs. Macquarie's Point to the famous chair, a sandstone bench which was hewn out by convicts for the wife of the city's governor at the time. 

Canberra

If you've got a bit more time to spare during your visit then one recommended outing would be a day trip to Canberra, the official capital of Australia. This small but compact city is home to a handful of national monuments such as the War Memorial, Parliament House and the National Museum. Mount Ainslie, which commands panoramic views over the city, is worth stopping by for photo opportunities as you descend into the city.
