How Beach Amazing Race works

The game starts at either Bondi, Clovelly or Coogee Beach (your choice) and runs north or south depending on your start and finish location. It all kicks off with an entertaining Opening Ceremony and explanation hosted by one of our awesome professional actors. This epic adventure will see each team locate checkpoints along the coastal walk by following a map and solving cryptic clues.

This beautiful part of the world becomes the backdrop for this interactive game as teams make their way along the coast and past the gorgeous beaches. From sandcastle sculpting to barefoot lawn bowls, this is some of the best that Sydney has to offer (and perfect for showing off to out-of-towners!). At each checkpoint you’ll need to complete a challenge including eating competitions, constructions tasks, cryptic puzzles, and detours. You’ll also be faced with sabotage missions, creative photo bonuses, locked challenges, and contend with Lady Luck.

The winners of the game are not based on being the fittest, fastest, or first across the finish line. It’s more about WHAT you do, rather than how FAST you do it, meaning you can take the gentle hills and stairs along the coastal walk at your own pace.

Once all teams have made their way to the final checkpoint our hosts hold the most entertaining and suspenseful Closing Ceremony you could hope for! With competitive banter flowing between teams we finally reveal the winners, award them with their medals and most importantly; their bragging rights! With new relationships formed and rematches being demanded, we leave you to the sweet sound of your team buzzing from an unforgettable day.

FAQs

What is the Bondi to Coogee Coastal walk?

The Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk is a popular, scenic 6 km (one-way) walking trail in Sydney, Australia, traversing the eastern suburb cliffs between Bondi Beach and Coogee Beach. Taking roughly 2–3 hours, the walk features stunning ocean views, beaches, parks, and bays, including Tamarama, Bronte, and Clovelly. It is a paved, largely accessible pathway with some steep stair sections.

We can do the full walk, or start/stop at one of the beaches along the walk for a shorter route. If you'd prefer a more localised version of the game just around Bondi or Coogee, we can also accommodate that.


Where does the game finish?

We'll help you find a pub or venue along the Coastal Walk, depending on which direction we travel in.


Can we include a bar stop?

The Coastal Walk is thirsty work! If you'd like to include a bar stop where teams will need to complete a puzzle while having an optional drink let us know and we'd be more than happy to accomodate this.


What are good conference venues in Coogee?

We've hosted many events at The InterContinental Sydney Coogee Beach (formerly Crowne Plaza). The Coogee Bay Hotel and Coogee Sands Hotel also has function and conference spaces for hire.

Everyone had an amazing time and thoroughly enjoyed the day! Greg was well organised and good fun, helping to make the day a huge success!! We even managed to avoid getting soaked! The Sabotage Selfie is a great idea and caused a lot of amusement on the day! All in all everything went well and I had a brilliant time with my mates so thanks again!! You really came through with your promise of the best birthday ever!

David R.

We had a fantastic time with a couple of the girls even saying it was the best hens they’ve been to. Josh and Samm were fantastic, I highly recommend them both and your company to anyone that wants to look at doing the Amazing Race. Thanks so much for making the day a lot of fun and more importantly making the day easy on me, organising hens are quietly stressful at times but your team pretty much organised everything so I didn’t have to do much. Take care and please extend my gratitude to the team, Josh and Samm!
