Coogee Beach

Coogee Beach is a sandy coastal beach in the suburb of Coogee within the City of Cockburn, about 20 kilometres southwest of Perth, Western Australia. Part of Woodman Point Regional Park, it is known for its calm, sheltered waters, long jetty, and the nearby Omeo Wreck snorkel trail. The beach is a popular family recreation area offering swimming, snorkeling, fishing and foreshore parklands with barbecues and playgrounds.

Visitors can expect a long, sandy beach with calm, shallow water protected by an offshore shark barrier enclosure and a timber jetty extending into Cockburn Sound. The foreshore includes grassed reserve, picnic shelters, barbecues and playgrounds backed by Woodman Point Regional Park. The Omeo Wreck, a historic shipwreck just offshore, forms a snorkel trail with interpretive markers. The area is open and exposed with views to Garden Island and is popular for swimming, snorkeling, fishing and coastal walks.

The beach is adjacent to the Omeo Wreck, a steamship wrecked in 1905 that now forms an artificial reef and snorkel trail. The surrounding Woodman Point area was historically used as a quarantine station and for coastal defence, with heritage-listed buildings and jetties remaining in Woodman Point Regional Park.

The coastal area lies on Whadjuk Noongar country. The beach and Woodman Point Regional Park are valued as a community recreation and coastal conservation area for the City of Cockburn and greater Perth region.
