Just around the corner from busy Bondi, Tamarama Beach is quiet and is one of the least crowded beaches in the city. Tamarama is arguably the most scenic of Sydney’s coastal environments and visitors can enjoy the breath-taking views across the bay.

The beach is also a great choice for groups of friends as the restrictions that prevent BBQs and small contained fires do not exist here, making it the perfect place for an evening gathering or picnic. Be warned that the sea here can be dangerous and violent riptides and currents are common even in the shallow areas, as such visitors are advised to stay out of the water unless lifeguards are on duty.

This isn't a beach known for nude sunbathing or cruising, but definitely one to enjoy if you're visiting Sydney.
