COLLAROY

GET TO KNOW
THE AREA

Halfway along the Northern Beaches, Collaroy is the epitome of beachside living. It’s a tight-knit community that’s laid-back and family-friendly, here, your neighbours know your name. It feels worlds away from the big smoke, but offers easy access to the city.

Lifestyle

In Collaroy, residents live an active, outdoor lifestyle with the beaches, ocean pool, bushwalks and aquatic reserves right on their doorstep. On the weekends, Collaroy Beach is a hive of activity. Some people soak up the sun and enjoy waterfront barbeques, while others run, swim, surf, windsurf, or snorkel at nearby Fisherman’s Beach. 

The same goes for weekdays. The golf club and tennis club also promote an active way of life. Locals are hooked on the suburb’s relaxed, almost holiday feel, and they love taking advantage of it whenever they can.
