Bondi Icebergs Pool
Not only will you be able to swim on the edge of the sea, but Bondi Icebergs Pool is a perfect spot to enjoy the view of the horizon. Located on the popular Bondi Beach as part of the Icebergs Club, these pools are a perfect way to cool off and relax. The waves constantly crash on the pool’s edges and that is how it’s filled with fresh saltwater, which is also a perfect time to snap a few selfies.
Wedding Cake Rock
Wedding Cake Rock looks like a nicely shaped dessert, but its sweetness is beyond its looks. Situated in the Royal National Park this white landmark offers a beautiful view on the neverending blue of the water and sky.
