Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：03/14/2018 06:43:44Copy HTML I’m headed to Sydney soon. How’s thonging at the pools? Looking at Icebergs and Wylie’s baths in particular.

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：03/16/2018 08:40:12Copy HTML In general, if no lifeguards, it's fine. Historically, lifeguarded pools are a bit more variable. As I've posted elsewhere on a number of occasions, it all depends on whether there are any complaints. I've been able to sun in a minimal Skinz M1R2 g-string at most pools without any problems. I've also occasionally swum in same. I suspect walking to the kiosk or change rooms may still be a bit 'in your face' so would likely generate a complaint and I'd be asked to "cover up". I've had lifeguards at a couple of pools tell me g-strings are not allowed there, but six months later appear to have changed their mind. I've been to a pool 30 times without a word said, then been told someone has complained. It was then suggested I would be okay at another pool run by the same council! There are no hard and fast rules. However, as more woman are sunning and swimming in thongs this season, I think it is becoming more difficult for anyone to make a case against a guy in a thong that the lifeguards would act on.
Notwithstanding all the above, in 530 Sydney pool visits I have only once ever seen another guy in a thong. It just isn't done. Unless you fluke being at the same pool at the same time as me, you will be the only guy in a thong there. With regard to Icebergs and Wylies, I have had a quick look at both, but never swum there, so can't comment on thong tolerance. Personally, I wouldn't pay to lay out on crowded concrete when I could do same on the sand at the nearby Bondi or Coogee beaches for free. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：03/20/2018 02:38:32Copy HTML If you had a complaint at Icebergs I’d be surprised considering how many of the female patrons wear them. That’s where you may see the little bit of silver lining around the modern litigious society - they would be perhaps cautious so as not to be sued for being discriminatory if they enforced such a rule against men and not women..?

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：03/25/2018 11:14:16Copy HTML I was at coogee and bondi yesterday and bronte today. Saw plenty of thongs on women but none on men. Seemed like tons of tourists were in town too.

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：03/26/2018 12:00:33Copy HTML I would also be keen to find out how tourists get identified. I used to get asked all the time whether I was a tourist or not. It was pretty silly to get asked as someone who had lived nearly 20 years here in northern NSW and before that as someone born and raised in Newcastle.
Generally when I say tourist it is usually people getting off a tour bus. LOL Love Bren |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：05/07/2018 03:43:46Copy HTML On a brighter note, Bondi is just spectacular today! Just got here for a sneaky hour or so, at the far northern end on the rocks. Seems to be where a lot of females hang out topless, and many thonged. I’m in my pink DeeJay thong :) Doesn’t get much better!

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：08/18/2018 09:40:23Copy HTML Great stuff @thongmad. I made it to Maroubra Beach on Tuesday this week with the little bit of warm weather around. There were only a handful of people on the beach & I laid out in my g-string for an hour or so & then walked back to the car park in just my g-string. Great start to season!

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：12/08/2018 10:38:17Copy HTML Thongmad, do you mean the northern or southern end???
Last few times i have been at Bondi there have been thongs along most of the beach, with a definite concentration on the far south (close to the Icebergs) and also on the grassy knoll above the pool at the north end (not so much on the north part of the beach). Not a massive amount of toplessness in any particular spot, but definitely on the increase :).
Definitely more and more thongs over the last few years at Bondi and every other beach in Sydney. In the far south part of Bondi I would think 1/4 to 1/3 of girls were in a thong bikinis on some days.
One particularly windy day the only pleasant part of the beach was on the knoll in the NE corner. Not many people on the beach at all, as the sunseekers were all avoiding the wind- half the ladies around me on the grass were in thongs/strings.
Only a few years ago and there would only be a handful of thongs or toplessness along on the entire beach.
Tamarama was also pretty popular with thongs last summer.
I wore a skinzwear m1r2 most times, incl walking along the length of the beach- fun.
A big difference too is that girls now do it all in their little bikinis. Walk along the promenade , swim, run along the beach, yoga. In years gone by they would usually have a set of "bum" swimmers to cover up for anything other than sunbathing.
The migration of thong activities away from the sand is interesting- some girls even walking up and along the footpath beside Campbell Ave without covering up their butts.
Hopefully this summer improves rapidly, as it has been pretty crap so far.

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：01/01/2019 06:03:21Copy HTML @adambrix Yes indeed there are plenty of thongs to be seen all along Bondi. On that particular day, I was out past the small kids pool at the North end, down on the rock shelf in front of the houses. Heaps of skin always being exposed there.

Anyone thonged in Sydney lately
What’s the vibe like after lockdown ending |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：10/31/2021 08:00:43Copy HTML The vibe is definitely more interesting around the major eastern suburbs beaches I have never seen so many actual thongs not just cheekies but only on women and mostly young. Of this group it’s typically a majority in a cheekie or thong, whilst for those who aren’t young it’s not unusual to see cheekies and some thongs. Whilst most younger guys are in smaller shorts, only some guys in briefs. As previously most older guys in bored shorts, some briefs and the occasional square cut. I am yet to see a guy in a thong so far this season but I haven’t been to the smaller or more secluded beaches yet.

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：11/24/2021 08:19:56Copy HTML I had a day on Bondi a few weeks ago, which I haven't done in quite a while.
It seemed every second female there had a thong on, or at least a cheeky. Many of them now wear proper thongs and g-strings. Quite a high percentage of guys in briefs comparative to other places, and in the past. I walked inn just a thong from south to north along the beach, then back along the promenade and returned to my car, all without issue.
This is also the case around my local area, as it's a huge trend amongst younger females.
I definitely think you see more guys in briefs than I can remember for a long time. Sightings of other guys in thongs are as rare as ever. I continue to wear my thongs wherever possible, and now more than ever, without issue.
I love summer in Australia ;) |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：12/30/2021 04:25:30Copy HTML Brighton to Cronulla.
Is there any Sydney thongers interest in getting together for a coffee, just a casual get together of like minded people?
Wearing casual clothes to an agreed coffee shop anywhere from Brighton Le Sands to Cronulla.
To save you looking up my profile Male 56 from Southern Sydney.
Reply here or PM me and lets see if we can get a few of us together. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：12/30/2022 07:40:32Copy HTML Since I’ll be in Sydney soon… time to revive this thread. It’s summer down under and it would be great to hear how thongs and gstrings are going this year and in to 2023….. and what adventures the locals have been up to. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：11/08/2023 03:42:11Copy HTML I was in Sydney for a week recently & had a great time. I thonged at Coogee & South Maroubra mainly, as well as Mahon Pool & Gordon's Bay.
One exciting update was the topless thonging by women at the South end of Maroubra. I haven't seen topless sunbathing like that for 10-15 years! Outstanding! |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：12/27/2023 01:45:20Copy HTML I've never been to Maroubra. What is the vibe for guys in thongs there?
What thongs did you wear at Maroubra and Coogee?
I haven't seen a lot of topless thong wearing in recent years at Sydney beaches - except for a bit at Tamarama.
Women used to go swimming and beach walking at Bondi in thong and topless years ago....
I see that Milk Beach and Redleaf Beach are getting popular with thongs these days.
Gordon's Bay is always good to wear something very small. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：02/16/2026 11:07:28Copy HTML The complaint seems not baseless.
I'd like being pushed among 3 or 4 girls in thong bikini (smile) but we can understand that a crowded bus isn't an open beach space and people can't move or look away and some situation can be a bit weird. A dress or shirt is usually required in urban area.
Also agree that seats must be left dry and clean, and this doesn't depend on bathing suit styles. Personally I don't sit shirtless in buses and trains in any case. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：02/21/2026 01:10:00Copy HTML Umm how much and and water does a thong hold compared to bored shorts or street shorts and underwear?
This is rare on regular Sydney Buses as opposed to the shuttle bus mentioned in the article. However at peak times the occasional girl or two can be seen leaving on the Bondi Beach bus in just a thong bikini. However they cover up when the bus gets to the train station where most people transfer, never heard a complaint. |

Yes, I have worn a thong walking top to bottom of this place. No issues :) |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：04/30/2026 07:08:35Copy HTML I've thonged at South Maroubra for years, & think I have only ever seen one other bloke wearing a g-string. I'm generally fairly discreet - find a quiet patch, strip down, sunbathe & grab quick swim. If it's not too busy, I'll walk back to the car park in just my thong. Never had a comment. i thonged at Mahon Pool yesterday. Nothing overt - just slipped in & out quickly, trying to be discreet. Going to try swimming laps at Bronte Baths in my Jack Adams Bondi thong today. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：05/03/2026 08:30:20Copy HTML I spent about 40 mins swimming laps at Bronte Baths in my 'Bondi' thong. It was fairly busy, & I'm not as comfortable stripping down to a thong as others in this forum, but I just took a deep breath & went for it.
The Jack Adams Bondi thong is fairly conservative, & passes as a Speedo from the front. The Bronte Baths ocean pool has a couple of raised platforms with benches to sit or leave your towel, so anyone has an elevated view of the swimmers in the pool.
After getting in the pool & finding an open lane, I just put my head down & swam freestyle for 40 mins. Walking out of the pool, which requires walking up a short series of stairs, was intimidating, but I didn't have a choice at that point.
I may have noticed a few reactions from different people in the pool, on the benches, & walking past the pool on the elevated path, but no comments. I finished with a hot shower next to the pool.
I'll try again next week. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：05/09/2026 12:39:34Copy HTML Yeah, I’m impressed. I don’t have the courage for Bronte but swim at Gordon’s regularly when it’s warmer.
How was Mahon, it seem less intimidating than Bronte?
What part of South Maroubra, in front of the club or down the end? |
| Ben_Jones83 | #85 |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：05/09/2026 07:46:36Copy HTML Thanks for the encouragement. I went for it again at Bronte Baths yesterday morning - I'm not sure anyone really noticed. At least, there were no noticeable reactions.
I also stripped down to my thong at South Maroubra. I was a little to the south of the club, but still 100m north of the volleyball courts. The water was crystal clear & very warm. I braved the walk back to the car park in just my thong & rinsed off at the car park beach shower. No real reactions.
I've been to Gordon's Bay in a g-string a couple of years ago - I might try there later this week.
I found Mahon Pool more exposed getting in & out of the pool. I feel like I can pick my moments at Bronte & slip into the water, however there's no angles to use at Mahon's. Everyone there will see you.
I prefer the more secret exhilaration, rather than bold exposure. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：05/10/2026 12:52:59Copy HTML Agree that Mahons feels at least as much like an amphitheater as Bronte, I will have to try it. Excellent work walking back at Maroubra, that’s really encouraging.
Gordon’s is getting more shaded on the north side but the south side is nice a sheltered from the wind. I go past the main rock shelf (where everyone is) and this is much easier at low tide. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：05/23/2026 02:37:43Copy HTML Not beach related, but heading over from SA for Fet Gala in October. Been around two decades since i've visited Sydney! I have a pretty wild outfit planned which involves a tiny g-string. To say i'm excited is an understatement. I don't suppose anyone here has been or has heard much about it? Sold out the past 4 years apparently. I'm staying in Surry Hills which is walking distance to the venue in Darlinghurst. |

Re：Sydney Beaches Date Posted：08/27/2026 12:43:43Copy HTML From reading the article, Í get the sense that they (council) are using the thong aspect to gain support for banning ALL swimwear from the bus. The sign says swimwear, not targeting just thongs. Thongs are just being scapegoated. |
