Coogee Beach, Coogee

Coogee beach nestles among sandstone headlands and it is protected from the heavy waves coming from Wedding Cake Island. This spot is an exposed beach reef and point break, at about 5 km/3 mi in the south of the famous Bondi beach. Surfers can explore the waves with swell sizes from 3 ft-5 ft /1 m-1.5 m to 8 ft/2.5 m.

Stroll along the beachfront and enjoy the stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and the Wedding Cake Island. Note: it is crowded during weekends, so be patient. Watch out for rocks, rips and pollution.
