Each July, humpback whales migrate along the Sydney coastline, an arrival long carrying sacred meaning for the Aboriginal peoples of this Country. The Burri Burri Whale Experience is a 2-hour guided walk on Bidjigal Country, from Bondi Pavilion to a clifftop Aboriginal engraving site used for cultural practice for generations. Your guide, Eric Brown, is a Traditional Custodian and descendant of known apical ancestors, holding rare authorisation from NSW National Parks to interpret these engravings. The walk opens with a traditional smoking welcome, an ancient cleansing practice observed here long before Bondi became a famous beach. Eric then leads the Burri Burri ceremony, song, dance and storytelling carrying the whale's spiritual meaning, joined by Drew Longbottom, Dharrawal and Wandi Wandian man and Knowledge Holder. It concludes cliffside watching for whales below, culture and nature together. Running daily in July 2026 only. Book early, groups limited.
