Hello, this website is our hobby to share some of our stories, images and videos, especially about Coogee and nearby areas, run by a voluntary group. We concentrate on the history of our suburb Coogee,
and about its heritage, buildings, events, art and personalities. We are also interested in stories about nearby suburbs, and other historic places, beautiful sights and interesting
characters we come across on our travels.
We acknowledge the Bidjigal and Gadigal People people, the Traditional Custodians of the land where we operate.
