We're in the process of updating the long-term plan for the Coogee Beach area and could really use your input!
The Coogee foreshore is a well-loved and popular recreational spot, especially during the summer season. The existing Coogee Beach Landscape Master Plan needs to be reviewed and updated, and we need your help to make sure we continue to provide you with the best beach front recreation area possible.
Now is your opportunity to share your thoughts about the future of Coogee.

The Coogee foreshore is a well-loved and popular recreational spot, especially during the summer season. The existing Coogee Beach Landscape Master Plan needs to be reviewed and updated, and we need your help to make sure we continue to provide you with the best beach front recreation area possible.
Now is your opportunity to share your thoughts about the future of Coogee.
What area does the Coogee Beach Land Use Master Plan include?
The study area for the Coogee Beach Land Use Master Plan can be seen in the Document Library. In general, the study area includes the land north of Poore Grove stretching to the southern end of North Coogee (Peri End), the stretch of Cockburn Road along the Coogee Beach and the informal parking to its East (near Coogee Community Hall) and includes the Coogee Beach Surf Life Saving Club, the Coogee Jetty, the Discovery Park caravan park, the Coogee Beach Café, tennis courts, parkland and car parks.
What is the City of Cockburn engaging the community about?
The City would like to hear from residents, visitors, and users of the area to understand what the community would like to see added or improved in the area, including the parkland area, recreation facilities and commercial opportunities (like improved food and beverage options).
How long will this project take?
The preparation of a Master Plan takes time. There are many steps and different stakeholders who need to contribute to the plan. It is expected that the Master Plan will be completed by mid-2025.
This includes community consultations and workshops at various stages. Please see the Lifecycle Tab for more information about project stages.
Next Steps
Once we have developed the draft Master Plan, we will undertake further engagement – this is anticipated to be towards the end of 2024.
How to Participate
Coogee Beach is a community space, and community input is essential to ensuring the design meets the needs and aspirations of the people using it (or who would like to use it).
There will be key opportunities to provide input into the plan throughout the project. This first phase of engagement is intended to uncover new information, stories, and aspirations of the community.
