Everything Else

Small supermarket for all basics. If you need a larger shop, you will find more variety at the Woolworths or Coles at Randwick Junction. The map is not quite right, the entrance is from Coogee Bay Rd.

One of Coogee's RSL's, atmosphere is a bit dated but they have some outdoors seating. I never go for the food but they have a small gym, they also have a pool and sauna, and casual visits are allowed.

The beach as such is not as pretty as Coogee but on the south side (Bronte Rd) are a number of nice cafes overlooking the water. It is particularly charming on a windy day to watch the surf roll in.

Pretty, should visit. If you are into running, and want to avoid the steps of the Coogee-Bondi walk, then go here and do laps (3.7km, all level). You can also cycle and horse ride here.

If you want a truly unique theatre experience, go to the Downstairs Theatre - it's tiny, and the actors could literally be stepping you on the foot! The atmosphere even grabs non-theatre enthusiasts.

Best spot to see the Opera on the other side, and right next to The Bridge. That's if no cruise ship is here, otherwise it blocks the view.
