Coogee Beach

Coogee Beach is a great spot for a swim or snorkel supplemented with the relaxed parklands and BBQ area for the ultimate family adventure

Located just 10 minutes south of Fremantle, Coogee is a popular swimming spot and pontoons and jetty also make it a favourite spot for kids to play. Surf Life Savers are down on the sand every Saturday from 8:00am – 12:00pm midday and Sunday from 8:00am – 3:00pm. If you are looking for more adventure, just a 2-minute drive or 20 minute walk away, the Omeo Wreck Dive Trail is located just 40m off shore and a great place for a snorkel.

Approximately 300m long and 75m wide, the Eco Shark Barrier creates a safe swimming area for children and adults alike. The original eco shark barrier was installed at Coogee Beach in the City of Cockburn in 2013 as part of a four-month trial, which was extended into an ongoing contract that continues to draw thousands of visitors each year. The net extends from the seabed to surface to create a complete safe swimming area. A key feature is its rigidity, which ensures small marine creatures are not trapped and fish are able to easily swim through the net.
