About Maroubra Beach, and surrounding areas
The beachside suburb of Maroubra is 10km south-east of Sydney’s CBD. It’s less developed than its neighbours Bondi and Coogee, giving it a more relaxed vibe than its popular cousins. Maroubra Beach and nearby Mahon Pool are a beautiful part of Sydney, making for the perfect day out in any season.
“Maroubra” comes from the Aboriginal word meaning “like thunder”, which is the perfect name for this beach with giant waves that pound the shore. One of Sydney’s most popular surfing spots, Maroubra is also one of only two National Surfing Reserves in Australia. The beach has two surf life-saving clubs and is patrolled year-round by lifeguards.
Maroubra is less sheltered than other beaches, which can result in bigger waves. Swim between the flags only, as the waves can be dangerous. Despite its strong waves, Maroubra is still an excellent beach for families.
THINGS TO SEE AND DO
-
Maroubra Beach is surrounded by open space. To the north of the beach are Jack Vanny Memorial Park, Mahon Pool and the rocky headland. Arthur Byrne Reserve and headland are to the south, and Broadarrow Reserve is to the west. Beyond these, the area is surrounded by the Maroubra Beach town centre and residential properties.
There's lots to do at the beach with a free outdoor gym, a skate park and a large kids playground. Free BBQs are located in the central part of the beach and towards the south of the beach near South Maroubra Surf Club. There are outdoor showers, a large changeroom and toilet and lighting. There is free parking surrounding the beach including a car park adjacent to the main beach, a car park north of the beach at Jack Vanny Reserve and a car park at South Maroubra Beach.
-
Just around from Maroubra is this medium sized rockpool surrounded by popular rocks. The pool is very relaxing in a scenic setting, but when the sea is up, you can get some good waves coming over the top. Another thing that sets it apart is the great new facilities block at the top.

Ocean pool by day, wedding venue by night, the heritage-listed baths that sit below the Maroubra to Bondi coastal walkway have changed little since they were built in 1907. The idyllic spot was born from one man's passion for the ocean: champion long-distance swimmer Henry Wylie obtained a special lease below the high-water mark to build the seawall and raised boardwalk.
RESTAURANTS & CAFES
OWNERS PICK!
Clove Lane
19 Clovelly Rd, Randwick NSW 2031
Full of all the charm of a welcoming neighbourhood gem, Clove Lane in Randwick is the local you wish was yours. It isn't fine dining or an overtly outrageous menu- it is more focused on a back to basics style that sources high-quality produce delivered with classic elegance. The open gallery style kitchen provides a theatrical backdrop to the modern dining space that is furnished with blonde timber and pendant lighting. If you take a look at the back there is an abundant chefs garden growing in bloom, and it doesn't get much fresher than that!
Madam Chu's
180-186 Campbell Parade, 2026 Bondi Beach
The offering at Madam Chu’s is brimming with Yum Cha classics, from raw bites to hand-made dim sum as well as wontons, bao, and stacks more. Start with plates of mixed sashimi before digging into prawn and chive dum sum, duck spring rolls, shredded duck dumplings, soft shell crab bao, and karate chicken. Plus, don’t miss their five-spice pork belly bites with salted caramel chilli lime dipping sauce.
Birichina Cafe
8/10 Lamrock Avenue, Bondi Beach
Two x 5 Star reviews for Birichina Café:
‘Amazing street restaurant ❤ Loads of healthy options to choose & for a good price. I really appreciated their fast service! I love their mango smoothie & it is huge. There are a couple of tables outside to eat. It is very casual. There is no indoor area for customers.’
‘This such a great cafe to grab a quick bite to eat or a coffee before going to the beach. There are two communal tables that seat 20+. The service is always quick and friendly and the food is delicious.’
Speedo’s Café
126 Ramsgate Ave, North Bondi NSW 2026
Monday mornings never looked so good, especially at the worlds most instagramable cafe based just a short stroll from the waters edge. Speedos cafe serves up an array of brightly coloured, mouth-watering food that will have you wanting to take a snap. With picture perfect views to match, it’s no wonder this cafe has become a hot-spot for locals and tourists.
For those with a sweet tooth, try the cornflake crusted brioche toast or caramelised banana pancakes with all the toppings, or opt for a post surf nutritious feed with a green goddess or pink pitaya bowl – delicious!
Lox Stock & Barrel
140 Glenayr Ave, Bondi Beach NSW 2026
Lox Stock & Barrel is a cozy Deli Diner that reflects the heritage charm of the area. If you’re looking for food that’s both healthy and tasty, look no further.
Their menu is a modern day take on traditional deli items and is inspired by Jewish dishes from pre-war Europe, seamlessly blended with fresh, local flavours and produce. Lox Stock & Barrel prides itself on its farm to plate philosophy, guaranteeing only the best ingredients are used.
Sean’s Panaroma
270 Campbell Parade, North Bondi
Sean's is a salty jewel of a restaurant, home to chef Sean Moran and his award winning, soulful, farm-to-plate food since 1993.
Sean’s is one of the most quintessentially Sydney dining experiences there is. The menu’s properly local and seasonal, the room is bathed in sunlight and Bondi’s crashing waves are audible from within. Yet, it’s blessedly free from Sydney’s frequent glitz and gimmick. Almost every food-loving Sydneysider has a wistful story to tell about a perfect meal they once ate at Sean’s.
RND – Japanese
180-186 Campbell Parade, Bondi Beach
RND – an initialism for ‘Raw Next Door’ – neighbours of Bondi’s beloved Raw Bar inside Harry’s Bondi, which has been given a Japanese-inspired glow-up to herald the new bar’s arrival. Expect warm wooden accents and an ode to Japanese minimalism. Come dusk, Harry’s will transform into RND three nights a week from Friday to Sunday (and soon, five nights).
RND takes on a semi-industrial vibe by twilight, with its polished concrete, timber settings and that easy Japanese minimalist styling. It’s a striking space with seating all along the street-facing window, plus tables outside to sit and soak up the salty ocean air. There’s a little projector throwing old black-and-white Japanese films onto one of the walls, a really cool touch and maybe a nice distraction for those awkward moments when conversation stutters.
Harry’s Bondi
2/136 Wairoa Ave, Bondi Beach NSW 2026
This beachside cafe cheerfully captures Bondi Beach, the space is light and airy with natural beachy hues contrasted with turquoise accents and deep blues, completed by the sounds of the waves and cheerful beach goers just meters away.
The menu highlights seasonal local ingredients with a creative and unique twist, serving up a range of breakfast delights; crispy rolled egg with braised black bean, chorizo and avocado; strawberry bircher with mulled saffron; and quinoa and fetta fritters with house-made labne. At lunch time, Harry’s focuses on its seaside location with dishes such as prawn spaghettini, seared scallops with pomegranate dressing, and salt and pepper calamari with squid-ink mayo. Just a stone’s throw away from the beach, Harry’s is a must try!
Porch and Parlour
17-18/110 Ramsgate Avenue, North Bondi
Described in their own words, Porch and Parlour is all about “simple, seasonal and creative dishes in a relaxed atmosphere in Bondi by the ocean,” which sums up one of the best cafes in Bondi perfectly.
Boasting a hip and happening vibe, reclaimed hardware aesthetic and mouth-watering menu, this place has it all. Menu favourites include the Green Breaky Bowl, featuring kale, herbs, quinoa, avocado and poached eggs, and the Raw Cosmic Salad, complete with local Bondi sauerkraut and raw seed crackers. Be prepared to queue for a table, especially on the weekends.
Barmilano
198/202 Marine Parade, Maroubra NSW 2035
A glass cube above the world-famous sea pool on Bondi Beach, Icebergs could easily rely on its setting alone. Yet owner Maurice Terzini, who has played a seminal role in developing modern Italian dining in Australia since the 90s, continues to excel with seasonal menus that tip a chef’s hat to land and sea. Urchin bruschetta topped with grated foie gras sits aside hand-cut spaghetti glistening with verbena butter and Moreton Bay crab. Tight on budget? Opt for flavoursome bar snacks such as pillowy oysters, alongside a selection of spritzes and twists on the classic Negroni.
Bamfords in Kirribilli
10 Fitzroy St, Kirribilli NSW 2061
Here are some reviews:
Stopped in this little gem for a quick drink before popping over the bridge. Fantastic service and great wine! Didn't need a snack, but it all smelled and looked delicious. Maria, the bartender was superb. Definitely recommend.
Great food, great drinks and a great atmosphere. Had a range of the share plates with friends and we couldn't fault any of them, the arancini balls were incredible! We will definitely be back!
