About Coogee

Coogee is a beloved eastern suburbs beach destination, where over 14,000 residents enjoy one of Sydney's most picturesque bays. The crescent beach, rock pools, and protected swimming make it more family-friendly than Bondi while maintaining genuine beach culture. The high median income reflects its desirable address.

The beachfront promenade is lined with cafes and restaurants offering ocean views. The Bondi to Coogee coastal walk terminates here, making it a constant destination for visitors. Coogee attracts families, young professionals, and beach lovers who prefer its quieter vibe to Bondi's scene. It's the eastern suburbs beach with just enough calm.

Coogee falls under postcode 2034 and is governed by Randwick Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Coogee electorate.
