Can you tell me about the history of Wylies Baths Coogee Sydney?
For those who appreciate great historical architecture, Wylie's Baths is a rare find. Henry Alexander Wylie, a champion long-distance, and underwater swimmer established Wylie's Baths in 1907. The construction of the Baths coincided with an emerging interest in seaside baths in Sydney and became one of Australia's first mixed genders bathing pools.
In the mid-seventies, the baths were closed to the public because of storms and high seas. However, in 1978 they reopened with help from Randwick Council. Previously known as the sunstrip pool, it was then renamed Wylie's Baths.
In 1994, a major renovation was undertaken in collaboration with the Randwick City Council. The facility has been fully renovated to meet modern needs, but every effort was made to keep its historic integrity and the old-fashioned feel.
Today, it is the perfect location for company functions, team-building events and family gatherings such as wedding receptions, birthdays and more.
