Things to do in Coogee NSW

The name Coogee is said to be taken from a local Aboriginal word koojah which means "smelly place". Another version is koo-chai or koo-jah, both of which mean "the smell of the seaweed drying" in the Bidigal language, or "stinking seaweed", a reference to the smell of decaying kelp washed up on the beach.

Coogee Bay Hotel owner Chris Cheung said he was unsure if the space would still offer music in the future or even retain the name Selina's. He recalled American rock band Nirvana attracting thousands of fans when they performed there in 1992.Jan 18, 2015

Coogee is a relaxed coastal suburb. Its broad, sandy beach appeals to both swimmers and surfers, and the ocean pools cut into the headlands are popular with families. There are laid-back pubs and bars on the beachfront, while the surrounding streets are filled with alfresco cafes. Joggers take in dramatic ocean views on the Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk. Nearby Gordon’s Bay has snorkelling trails and rich marine life.
