FélixDecember 31, 2016Smaller beach but very enjoyable! And damn close to the city by bus. Protip: walk all the way to Bondi Beach by the coast. It's about 2h, but definitely a must do. Many beaches and landscapes.- One of the best beaches in Sydney I've ever been. So close to city, just about 15 min. by bus from Central. Lot of BBQ areas. People seem kind and friendly almost all the time.
Kevin VDecember 3, 2016Quieter with a great local community atmosphere. Perfect if you want to avoid the hectic Bondi beach. 15-20 bus ride from Bondi junction. Great waves that break close to the shore.- Gets very busy and it's often hard to find a park. Nice green area above the beach for BBQ and shops are convenient.
Isaura MatamorosOctober 5, 2017My favourite beach, not too crowded, not too big, good for swimming and chilling.
The waves on the Middle and right side of the beach are very strong. Go to the left (North) side of the beach for a good time!
Coogee beach has a better than average ratio of water to hydrogen molecules. You will emerge more oxygenated than when you stepped in. Good for hydration too. Bring your own bath salts though.
Delaney GoreckiFebruary 28, 2017Can get quite crowded during the day time being a more popular beach in Sydney, but if your looking for some fun at night try going for a swimming in the pool at sunset!
Salwan FinjJanuary 15, 2015Raised here...lots of great coffee shops, small outlets and the Coogee Bay hotel beer garden is the best on a sunny weekend weekend with live music and a great pub menu...
Great beach, not as crowded as Bondi, but with some good cafes nearby.
Lucila de FrancischiJanuary 13, 2015If you don't like waves go to the north part of the beach, beyond the rocks you'll find a natural pool
- Bob MJanuary 26, 2021Excellent local beach. Less touristy than Bondi Beach. Very nice to come in the evening and cool down on a hot summer night.
Gentle beach with some shade up on the grassy hill. Lots of free parking around - try to find the 4hr spots!
T.September 11, 2016Nice area with lovely shops and cafes. Similar to Bondi. Go early if you like to find a spot in a beach.
Jog down and work up a sweat then take a dip to cool off. Great for waves here. Lots of cafes for food. BBQ on the grass and plenty of brewskis. Come again
Crystal DDecember 21, 2016The perfect beach. Great in summer. Get really crowded though but definately a must see place.- Dimitris VerverellisNovember 4, 2014Fantastic beach! Maybe less crowded than Bondi. There is a grassed area with tables for picnic.
Davin ChuaSeptember 12, 2015More quiet compare to Bondi. Less tourist here. Enjoy the sea with a bottle of cold beer
Only the best beach in the east would have it's own Virgin Mary sightings... Check out the stories and shrine on the north end of the beach. Just up the stairs, turn right and follow the fence along
Ali CotterFebruary 20, 2015Small beach, make sure to do the coogee to bondi walk - bring water, it's a long one in dead heat
Camilla CookeApril 29, 2010Best gropers - if you snorkel at the north end of coogee beach there is a little ecosystem along the reef that is very rich in different fish and very docile, huge blue gropers!
Dilara SultanOctober 11, 2011It is nicer beach, less crowded, great cafes and good surf. You can walk the coastal path along to Bondi if you want a peek!
Jhonattan MartinsMay 26, 2015Amazing beach, have great choices of restaurants around and a green area.
Soouth end is the best spot bring a bottle of water with you
Pete CNovember 25, 2009Get juice from 'watermelon head' on right hand side eight doors up from water. My fav is mint, watermelon, ice. Return to beach and enjoy while appreciating volunteer lifesaver's self-less service.
Cindy Ramli ChangJuly 15, 2013small-quiet-nice view beach in NSW.. Bondi is too crowded for me. Coogee is much quitter and i LOVE it ❤
Easily accessible for the city folk via M50 bus! No need to go to circular quay.
- ClaudiaSeptember 18, 2015Beautiful beach and great restaurants. Coogee is an ideal holiday destination. I recommend staying at Crowne Plaza.
Jason MaitlandApril 17, 2013Stay at Surfside, amazing staff and great views! Located right on the beach..
It's a great day today...they call it an indian summer. ..the cold is just going to get back at you.
- Amy WallerMarch 19, 2014Good times and awesome pub across the road - the Coogee Bay!! One of Sydney's best!!
Brian JoOctober 7, 2013Parking a few blocks up on coogee bay road is free street parking for the whole day
If you enjoy people watching as much as swimming between the breakers then Coogee is the beach for you. All sorts head to Coogee when the weather heats up. So come on down and bring a fold out chair!
Walt CollinsJanuary 2, 2017Now that full alcohol ban is in effect coogee beach will be better and cleaner👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
BeachwikiAugust 31, 2011Great breakfast cafes on the road running along the beach. Nice tidal pool at south end...
One of the best beaches in Sydney. Get in early to avoid the crowds and the heat.
Christie Givenchy TjandraJuly 28, 2011Watch for the busses when crossing. It's one of famous last bus stop for many routes.- Love the area nice restaurants along coogee bay road
DanetteNovember 8, 2011Dunningham Park @ Coogee Beach is a beautiful location to get married in Autumn.
James AlexanderJanuary 8, 2011Fish n Chips on the grass is the best! Avoid the fish n chips shop on the grass; expensive, and crap food (tourist trap)
Please go to see the "natural pool" at the north side if the beach!
