Maroubra is a delightful beachside suburb located about 10 kilometres southeast of Sydney’s Central Business District. It is a popular destination for both locals and tourists who want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy a coastal environment. The main attraction in Maroubra is its beautiful beach, which surfers and beachgoers love for its consistent waves and lively atmosphere. Randwick Council has beach webcams allowing you to check the surf conditions before you go. The commercial and residential centre of Maroubra, called Maroubra Junction, offers a wide range of shops, cafes, and restaurants, catering to the daily needs of the community.
For those seeking leisure and scenic beauty, the Maroubra Coastal Walk provides breathtaking views along the cliffs, extending from Maroubra Beach to Bondi Beach. Families often gather at Arthur Byrne Reserve, a park near the beach, equipped with barbecue areas, picnic spots, and a playground. Mahon Pool, a natural rock pool at the southern end of Maroubra Beach, invites swimmers to enjoy the pristine coastal waters.
Embracing a strong surfing culture, Maroubra has been a nurturing ground for champion surfers. The suburb also boasts community facilities, including schools, community centres, and sports amenities, fostering a family-friendly environment. The Surf Lifesaving Club is one of the oldest in Australia and was built in 1906. It is in the planning stages for redevelopment with Adriano Pupilli Architects appointed to design the new Maroubra Surf Life Saving Club.
