Collaroy has something for everyone with a host of activities such as swimming, surfing, walking, snorkelling and you can even catch a movie at the heritage listed cinema.
The area was originally part of Narrabeen but was renamed after the collier S.S. Collaroy ran aground in 1881 during a storm. Collaroy Beach is partly protected from the wind and swell from the south, making it a perfect beach for beginners, swimmers and families.
There is also a 50 metre saltwater ocean pool however, if you prefer a smaller and quieter beach, just a short walk around the corner you will find Fisherman’s and Long Reef Beach.
Don’t forget your snorkel and mask as this is a great snorkelling spot to look for feather stars, heart urchins and sea slugs (also known as nudibranchs).
Pure joy as you wake to the sunrise. Awe as you make it to the snowy peak. A sense of adventure as you motor across red plains. The relief of rejuvenation as you wade into an alpine stream. Connection as you taste native, fragrant leaves. A sense of belonging as you return to your favourite holiday house. Freedom as you dash into the waves. Discover the endless feelings a visit to NSW can inspire.
