Located within the community of Clovelly in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, Clovelly Beach is a 60-meter-long beige sand beach. This small, sheltered beach is positioned on the end of a narrow bay and is tucked between two rocky headlands that resemble two arms and almost meet at their seaward end. Clovelly Beach has a beautiful backdrop of a small grassy park, the famous Clovelly Hotel, many oceanfront homes, a nearby cafe, and concrete platforms and promenades on both sides, which together offer incredible views. The beach is also home to one of the first surf lifesaving clubs in the world, namely, Clovelly Surf Life Saving Club, founded in 1906. Clovelly Beach is part of the Bronte-Coogee Aquatic Reserve, which is home to many marine invertebrates, including western blue groper, blacklip abalone, eastern rock lobster, southern rock lobster, anemones, barnacles, chitons, cockles, crabs, mussels, octopus, oysters, pipis, sea urchins, sea stars, snails, and worms.
