Attractive seaside destination for families, couples, surfers and even photographers.
The word “Maroubra” in Aboriginal terms suggests “like thunder”, as if referring to the crashing waves as it regularly hits the shorelines, making it both scenic and also a surfing hotspot amongst both locals and tourists alike. With regular swells and wave conditions coupled with a surfing heritage dating back to the 1900s, it is no surprise that Maroubra Beach stands as one of the best surfing spots for experienced surfers as well as amateurs looking to learn a tip or two from the pros.
While the beach may be less popular than the renowned Bondi Beach and perhaps much less touristy than Coogee Beach, it remains an appealing seaside destination for families and couples alike; especially those seeking for solace and reprieve, to enjoy a day spent by the seaside. Being closely located to an array of nature spots such as the Arthur Byme Reserve and the Broardarrow Reserve, one could take a walk there and enjoy the lush greenery before heading to the beach for some surfing activities. Moreover, Maroubra Beach offers a variety of facilities from a free outdoor gym, clean sand with picnic spots, to a playground, and rockpool. The fantastic panorama of the entire beach also makes it an attractive photo spot even for professional photographers.
