Bondi blue is a name of a color coined by Apple Computer, Inc. for the original iMac computer. It is said to be named for the color of the water at Bondi Beach, in Sydney, Australia. Commentators have noted that Bondi Beach is popular for surfing, whereas the iMac was promoted for "surfing the web". It has been claimed that the color's name was chosen by two New Zealanders working for Apple who had previously lived in Sydney.

Bondi Blue is also an Australian wine label owned by Evans & Tate Limited. Their wines include Chardonnay, Merlot and Shiraz.
