Randwick Council’s Marine and Coastal Discovery Program

Background

Council’s marine and coastal activities program is offered three times a year during the summer, autumn and spring school holidays. The program includes a range of affordable activities aimed at helping families and children discover for themselves our unique marine and coastal environment.

Commencing in 2006 as Council’s Summer Activities Program, the marine and coastal education program grew in its success and popularity and is now offered three times a year; taking place at Randwick City’s popular coastal locations including Clovelly, Coogee, Maroubra, Malabar and Little Bay beaches; La Perouse and Botany Bay.

The Marine and Coastal Program can include activities like:

  • rockpool rambles
  • coastal walks
  • snorkelling
  • live animal experiences
  • sea-kayaking
  • learn to surf
  • rips and tides talks
  • boat trips
  • bird watching
  • cultural tours.

The Marine and Coastal Program’s expert guided activities help us all learn how to protect, conserve and enhance Randwick’s unique coastal and marine environments in a safe and fun way. Attracting a small fee per person, the program supports families and groups of friends in coming together and learning together. Bookings for all marine and coastal activities are required.
