Sculpture by the Sea 2012 – Pics, Tips and Lowdown

The Bondi to Coogee coastal walk is (what I would consider to be) one of the most beautiful walks in the world. Even on bad weather days, the views are breath-taking and I would encourage anyone visiting Sydney to experience it. And if you’re in town from mid-October to September, then you’re in luck as this is when the Sculpture by the Sea event takes place.

There’s not much explanation needed, it is exactly as it sounds – lots of random sculptures nestled into the coastline for all to gaze at and interact with.

Top 2 tips for surviving Sculpture by the Sea

1. If you can, start at Bondi and walk to Bronte – or even all the way to Coogee. The scuptures stop at Tamarama but this way you’ll avoid the crowds (and bumped up prices) when looking for a post-walk meal and drinks.
2. Take a camera – the weird and wonderful sculptures range from fun to inspiring. Plus the event takes place during whale migration season so you never know, you may be lucky and spot some humpbacks passing by!
3. Don’t like crowds? Head down before 10am or after 5pm and if possible choose a weekday. It can get pretty manic!
