Little Coogee Bay Lookout

Has great views but to enjoy it you will have to come really early on a weekday or you won't get a car parking spot anywhere close to this place. We ended up going in circles and finally gave up and left

Lovely views of Coogee, Clovelly Beach and Gordon’s Bay. Good quiet spot to grab some lunch and get some fresh air. Recommend doing this on a sunny winters day midweek and not get caught up in the peak summer crowds and traffic. Clovelly Beach is an underwater masterpiece if you like snorkelling. You might be lucky enough to see the big blue groper fish. Also perfect for a deep ocean swim without the fear of sharks. There’s also a small sand beach and a saltwater swimming pool.

Great spot to chilout, go for a walk or swim.

Tucked away along the Bondi to Coogee walk, Little Coogee Bay Lookout is a peaceful pause with panoramic views of the coastline. It’s the kind of spot that invites you to stop, breathe in the salty air, and just take it all in — the crashing waves, sandstone cliffs, and the soft curve of the bay below. It’s not just a lookout — it’s a moment of calm between vibrant beaches. And if you're into snorkeling, you're in luck. Just nearby, Gordon’s Bay and Clovelly offer some of Sydney’s clearest waters and marine life worth diving for. I spent an afternoon exploring the underwater trail at Gordon’s Bay — calm waters, plenty of fish, and the kind of stillness that’s rare this close to the city. Whether you’re walking the trail, chasing views, or looking for your next snorkel spot, Little Coogee Bay Lookout is a hidden gem that ties it all together.

The lookout is just infront of the public carpark, so you cannot miss it. You can watch the majestic waves hitting on the large stones. With a tripod and camera, you can try shooting long exposures of the waves. The effect can be quite interesting.
