This classic coastal walk has wonderful views of all the major beaches but less known is the extended version from Coogee to Maroubra. It’s worth following google maps as a short section stops and you need to detour off the track but it will continue again a few streets along through Lurline Bay and through the coast line down to Maroubra beach. Continuing south from Maroubra beach is a very beautiful section of national park, the Maroubra headland walking track, a less well known and far more pristine nature trail, with some incredible scenic views along the way.
