James and I, on a famous beach (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bondi

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'famous beach' is the definition.
'Bondi' can be an answer for 'beach' (Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia). I'm not certain of the 'famous' bit.

'james and i' is the wordplay.
'james' becomes 'Bond' (James Bond is a fictional spy).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'bond'+'i'='BONDI'

'on a' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for bondi that I've seen is " Sydney beach".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
