Is Bondi Beach Really Worth The Hype? Sydney, Australia (First Impression) 🇦🇺

[@ginagriffith2846]

Bondi is beautiful. So close to the city, gorgeous sand and a great place to swim. No need to compare - all our beaches are special in their own way. It's not over rated. We are so lucky ❤

[@GlenAndMado]

Very lucky indeed!

Kiwi here. Must watch The Castle (1997), Nice watch The Dish (2000). Also, aussies are just good blokes and shelias that talk funny.

Sydney itself has over 70 beaches. Bondi/Bronte is the birthplace of surf lifesaving worldwide and Speedo swimwear....it all started there.

[@dexterplameras3249]

Sydneysider here. Bondi is a historic beach because it is close to the city, but locals will tell you that Manly Beach is much better. If you go to Manly Beach take the SLOW ferry to Manly (30 minutes) and spend a day to 1/2 a day at Manly. Make sure to have lunch at the Manly Skiff Sailing Club, they have great views of the Harbour.

Glen, when you speak of health and its importance, too many coffees are a real issue. If you also work out seriously, take serious notice of any palpitations. My eldest son had to stop the coffee forever, as has my youngest. It is something to really consider. Seriously. Many yrs ago, a late uncle got hooked on it so bad, he became chronically ill, for many many months. Take care Glen.

Now you are in Australia - you have to experience a multi day camping summer bush music festival such as Esoteric Festival, Golden Plains, Pitch Music & Arts. Ask some folk your age what is going on. Dancing till dawn under the stars on a warm summer night is special.

Welcome to County Bondi the home for the Irish in Sydney ❤

[@glennkenny9810]

As a resident of Sydney and regular beach goer, the northern beaches are far better and more natural.😊

[@هشاممارديني]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@deanmaynard8256]

Just remember - in Australia a Hotel can often mean a pub!

[@robertwalker7924]

ahh Bondi Beach, I lived there in the 80,s.... Welcome back to Oz Glen And Mado, hope you get up to Northern NSW sometime..😀

[@Davo-i1s]

Is Bondi Beach worth the hype ? I guess that depends on what you are looking for. It is not the Miami of Australia it is the Bondi of Australia it is not a copy of anywhere in the world Bondi has its own personality. Millions of tourists love Bondi as do many Aussies but there are also those who prefer other beaches so for them maybe its not worth the hype. People can make their own call because at the end of the day its only your own personal opinion. Glad you guys are back in Australia and enjoying your experience I hope the summer heat doesnt get too much for you..

Great vlog guys. But you might want to take a deep breath here. That block of apartments on Campbell Parade that you suggested would cost $1.5 to $2 million? Apartment 302 (2 bedroom, 2 bath 1parking spot) sold for $4.75 million in 2021. That's level 3, not the penthouse or the 2 sub - penthouses! Eastern Suburbs real estate prices are just about criminal. Worth it? Probs not, but that's how it is. Looking forward to next 8 months. Cheers!

The "birds in the background" were rainbow lorikeets....the birds in the small gum tree were noisy miner's.

[@Innerlight320]

You will see similar names in oz and Nz generally named after famous ,infamous English people or place names

[@GlenAndMado]

We have noticed that, pretty interesting as both countries were colonised around the same time so make sense lol

[@AUmarcus]

The NSW coast has about 75% of all the ocean pools in the world.....some natural some man made.

[@will_274]

You’ll find the Miami of Australia is more commonly attributed to the Gold Coast.

[@omega43.5]

price of apartments at 13:30 are $25m+

[@elenawalker3746]

Go to South Australia or Tasmania the big two cities are over done by travellers.

[@lesleyhughes3174]

A Big Yes. Overrated. Definitely not Miami😂😅😂😅

[@louisaklimentos7583]

There are heaps better beaches in Australia . The ones in our national parks are very scenic and are more beautiful than Bondi beach .

[@coopsnz1]

Jervis bay great spot ! Im camping there in jan

[@AdriansYouTubeChannel]

Lucky you guys don't smoke, if you did both smoke a pack a day each, you be looking at $600 a week just to buy smokes. Check out the prices of our smokes and show that on your video, the world would be shocked!

[@GlenAndMado]

Damn that’s insane! Haha we don’t drink or smoke so we will save a fortune 🤣 we probably won’t sip on abit of alcohol for the whole year while we’re here! Bad habits cost it seems 🙌🤣

[@alancolley9937]

Bondi is overrated Many more much better beaches in greater Sydney

[@emgee65]

Bondi has got to be the most overrated beach in the whole of Australia hands down.

[@joxp6971]

There are better beaches in aussie than bondi

[@RootedMate]

The most overrated beach in Australia

[@coopsnz1]

my mate uncle own a mansion on Brontie beach !

[@GlenAndMado]

Wow he’s a lucky man! He’s living the high life then 😂 if I was him I’d sell it and go elsewhere and retire in the countryside

[@coopsnz1]

overrated! manly better but i live on northshore only 20 min drive

[@GlenAndMado]

We have made some videos the other areas too! Just need to get them up asap 🙌

[@elenawalker3746]

Even Balmoral Beach on the Lower North Shore is closer to the CBD and much nicer.

[@coopsnz1]

[@GlenAndMado]

That’s shocking 😂😂
