You'd be hard pushed to getlost on this scenic walk as you just follow the cliffs around from Bondi. There are lots of great views and lovely uncrowded beaches along the way - Tamarama and Bronte especially are worth stopping at. You'll also pass a graveyard perched high up on cliff tops which is a beautiful sight.

This is a lovely scenic walk. It's about 9km and takes about 4 hours. Get a bus over Sydney Harbour Bridge to Spit Point and set off from there. You'll see some lovely ocean views, as well as the possibility of glimpsing some wildlife - lizards, small (and harmless) snakes and some aboriginal rock carvings. Manly is a lovely little secluded fishing village where you can have a little rest for a bit before getting on the ferry to Darling Harbour.

There are quite a few B&Bs in the Blue Mountains park but if you can't spare a night here, you can explore the park by road using the Great Western Highway which runs out of Sydney. The scenery is really beautiful - look out for the three sisters, three monumental sandstone cliffs. There are also some historical villages here as well as this was the route that European explorers took in the early 19th century.

Key West is like a tropical version of Cape Cod. Many people come here for its bohemian past - you can visit the house of Ernest Hemmingway who is just one of the prestigious figures who lived here. Its also a good spot to go snorkelling and scuba diving and the beaches are really lovely.

Key Biscayne is a beautiful area south of Miami beach. The views of the ocean are unparalleled and some of the beaches are really charming, as well as being much less crowded than those in Miami proper. The Crandon family amusement park is a great place to take kids and has an Indian village and pirate area.
