The Neighbourhood

- Morning Swims & Breakfast: Start with a sunrise dip at Wylie's Baths, the heritage tidal pool carved into the rocks south of the beach. Afterwards, Coogee Courtyard Cafe is known for its chilli scrambled eggs and cold-pressed juices, Cali Press is famous for its açaí bowls, and Eksentrik is a local favourite for a flat white.
- Beaches & Coastal Walks: Gordons Bay is a sheltered cove loved for swimming and snorkelling. The Coogee to Bondi coastal walk winds 6 kilometres past Gordons Bay, Clovelly, Bronte and Tamarama, with a stop for a glass of wine at the Clovelly Bowling Club along the way. Back in Coogee, Gelatissimo is the place for gelato on the grassy reserve above the beach.
- Lunch by the Water: La Spiaggia serves pizza and Italian with ocean views, and Coogee Pavilion is ideal for pizza and cocktails overlooking the beach.
- Evenings: Start with cocktails and a Mediterranean menu at Shutters as the sun goes down. For dinner, Sugarcane is known for its caramelised pork hock, Barzura has relaxed dining at the southern end of the beach, and Coogee Wine Room offers Australian wines and share plates in an intimate setting. Finish with drinks on the Coogee Pavilion rooftop.

Buses from Coogee run to the CBD, Randwick and Bondi Junction, Uber and GoGet car share are readily available, and street parking is available nearby.
