Product Description

Coogee Beach Framed Canvas Print — Sydney, NSW

At the southern end of Sydney's great coastal walk, Coogee rewards every step — a generous bay of golden sand and gentle surf, with Wedding Cake Island breaking the swell offshore and historic ocean baths carved into the rocks at both ends.

From the air you can see exactly why Coogee swims so gently: Wedding Cake Island sits offshore like a bouncer, taking the worst of the swell before it ever reaches the bay. What's left rolls in soft, and the whole beach relaxes because of it — which is why Wylie's Baths and the McIver's Ladies Baths have thrived here since the 1800s.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. Its 100MP Hasselblad camera records the bay in remarkable detail — every swimmer, the surf line, and the graduation of blues — razor sharp at all print sizes.

Relaxed, sun-drenched warmth

Calmer than Bondi and prouder of it, Coogee's easy character suits living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and offices, and it brings a settled warmth rather than drama.

For the Coogee loyalists of Sydney's east — from morning swimmers to Sunday session veterans — it's home on a wall.

Available as a fine art paper print or stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across a full range of sizes. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of beaches he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

Coogee is where the Bondi-to-Coogee walk exhales. After the drama of Tamarama and Bronte's compact energy, the coastline opens into this wide, generous bay where the surf arrives noticeably gentler.

From the air you can see exactly why: Wedding Cake Island sits offshore like a bouncer, taking the sting out of the swell before it reaches the bay. That shelter is why Wylie's Baths and the McIver's Ladies Baths have thrived on these rocks since the 1800s.

The 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro holds every swimmer and every band of blue sharp. Some beaches perform. Coogee just welcomes you, and that is exactly what I wanted on the wall.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
