While You're There

From 11.30am (after the 1.5k swim), everyone is invited to enjoy the hospitality of the Collaroy SLS Club for fellowship and refreshments from the bar.

Following this, you might like to venture down to Long Reef Point and explore the rocks and walking track.

If you haven’t had enough of the ocean for the day, you can take a dip at the Collaroy rock pools. The kids will love jumping in the pool with the waves lapping at the side.

Travel & Parking

There’s a car park next to the Collaroy surf club and a larger one north of The Collaroy. Other than that, head down the roads that run away from the beach for free on-street parking.

About

If you’re after a swim that will show you some of Sydney’s best marine life, the Collaroy Beach Ocean Swims is just that.

The event on Sydney’s northern beaches features three swims over relatively short distances: 300m, 800m, and 1.5km, the latter two over martini glass-shaped courses.

Collaroy Beach is an open beach nestled inside the northern corner of Long Reef Headland. While the beach has slight shelter from the headland, it remains exposed to the elements with shifting banks, gutters and rips depending on the size of the swell.

All swims take you over reef patches that highlight the local marine biodiversity.

Collaroy Beach is situated smack bang in the middle of one of Sydney’s largest marine parks, Long Reef Aquatic Reserve.
