Free Beach BBQ @ Coogee Beach During Whale Season

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

It was yet again another free event put on by Westend Backpackers Hostel, one of Sydney’s premiere youth hostels. Westend Backpackers Hostel Sydney offers free activities everyday of the week and with its central location it is just a short bus ride to the beach.  

The sun was shining there were whales in the ocean the scenery could not have been better.  The free BBQ for 70 people went as planned but there were a few unexpected guests in the ocean!!! Two whales were seen frolicking in the ocean less than 50 meters from the shore!!! It was an unbelieveable sight and was part of yet again a great day on the beach in Sydney.

Capital Backpackers Party Down in Blend Bar

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

The Nomads Capital Wellington backpackers had a busy weekend partying in our backpacker bar Blend with 4th of July celebrations and the All Black v South Africa rugby test a good excuse for everyone to get their dancing shoes on. The Nomads Capital backpacker staff even had a boogie (including Adnin our manager).

A Pack of Wild BABIES Invade Sidebar

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

It was the famous quiz night at Legend Has it West End Sydneys best backpacker hostel in the CBD. Quiz night involves one free hour of ALL YOU CAN DRINK WINE and great prize giveaways. It was Sean Peter Anderson’s birthday and he is afraid of growing up and facing the real world. So we decided to do a BABY FANCY DRESS THEME PARTY!!!

There were a lot of people in Nappies and some would say you can never look good in a Nappy but we now strongly disagree. A pack of babies invaded the Sydneys Sidebar for live acoustic music and a 2-4-1 DRINK VOUCHER ON ARRIVAL. Then the famous DJ Shipwreck on the turn tables spinning music until the wee hours of the morning.

In the morning there was a lot of whinning babies about having such a good time they drank too much and now are under the weather. It is a good thing that at Legend Has it Westend we do a free costal walk from the world famous Bondi beach to Coogee beach. There are lots of interesting facts along the beach walk that include: the hobo on the rocks, suicide point, and the Clovelly Bowling club. Jumping in the ocean is quite possibly the absolute best way to get rid of a hangover and it is always a great walk.

Make sure you guys check out all the free activities at Legend Has it Westend!!! I promise to show you a great time and make you part of the Westend family. See you soon!!!
