00:00Locals, tourists and dogs soaked in the Christmas spirit at Sydney's Bondi Beach on Christmas
00:08Day, enjoying the sunny weather, wearing festive Santa hats and posing for photographs with
00:14a Christmas tree on the sand. Cameron Heslop, a first-time visitor to Bondi Beach from Scotland,
00:20described the experience as something quite special.
00:24Loving it, not missing home at all. Obviously I've only been here three days, so just sinking
00:29in now, but to wake up this morning and come to the beach on Christmas Day is something
00:33quite special.
00:34Sydney's ocean beaches, famed for golden sand and clean water, draw tourists from around
00:40the globe. Christmas Day is also one of the busiest days of the year for volunteer lifeguards
00:46who patrol Bondi Beach's shores and waves, ensuring the safety of swimmers along the
00:51roughly one-kilometre stretch of beach.
