Collaroy Beach

Collaroy Beach extends along a continuous 3.4-kilometer stretch of coastline that connects seamlessly with Narrabeen Beach at Wetherill Street.

The beach received its name from the S.S. Collaroy vessel that ran aground on these shores in 1881, before being refloated and later meeting its end on California's coast.

Four dedicated Surf Lifesaving Clubs maintain supervision of the beach area, representing the strong Australian coastal safety tradition and community involvement.

The beach features an accessibility precinct with wheelchair access to the sand, an all-abilities playground, and a saltwater ocean pool for controlled swimming environments.

During migration seasons, visitors can observe various marine wildlife including dolphins and whales passing through the waters near the shoreline.
