If you live more than 5kms away you are allowed in the club without a membership. The food and drinks are affordable and the view is worth a million dollars. Sit outside on the balcony and watch the surfers right in front of you. You can just have a drink there too. Breakfast, lunch & dinner.
I have seen dolphins catching the waves while sipping on a glass of wine.

Sightseeing
This would be my favourite walk. Its a cliff top coastal walk with lost of places to stop and have breakfast, lunch or dinner. You will pass stunning beach BBQ spots, great surfing & swimming areas. Do some whale and dolphin watching or see the famous sculptures by the sea (20 Oct to 6 Nov) There is a coffee table book in the apartment showing you the sculptures over the years. It's a 2 hour walk to Coogee and add on another hour & half if you want to continue to Maroubra Beach.

Just hop on the bus number 333 (You can see the bus shelter if you look towards the street from the balcony - Campbell Pde. It should take about 50 minutes to Circular Quay, you can't miss it. Its worth the trip. While you are there have a drink at the outdoor Opera Bar and listen to the music while looking point blank and the Sydney Harbour Bridge, you will love it.
