This is the cheaper alternative to the Bridge Climb but still getting the spectacular view of Sydney! The entry level of the pylon lookout is the pedestrian walkway level of the bridge. A climb up the stairs inside the pylong brings you to the first level where the admission counter is , plus exhibits. The seond level features the challenges of building the steel bridge and a souvenir shop. This is followed by a mezzanine level where the rich history of the bridge is on exhibit. Finally, after 200 steps, you get to the pylon lookout, which is almost at the same level as the peak of the arch of the bridge with amazing views!! The pylon lookout is open to the public 7 days, 10am to 5pm, but is closed on Christmas Day. Access is by using the steps near Milsons Point Railway Station and cross towards the Opera house side of the bridge.

The sweeping white-sand crescent of Bondi is one of Australia’s most iconic beaches. Reliable waves draw surfers while, nearby, hardy locals swim in the Icebergs ocean pool year-round. Trendy, health-conscious Sydneysiders head to laid-back cafes around Hall Street, while hip backpackers frequent the area's casual pubs. Walkers and joggers use the clifftop Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk, with its dramatic scenery. Bondi Beach is further to travel but if you are keen its a great day spent on the beach, enjoying the local cafes and just to say you've been to Bondi Beach in Sydney. Beware in summer its packed.
