History of Tamarama

Perhaps because of its unpredictable surf, Tamarama was once home to other tourist attractions. Firstly an aquarium, with complex housing a shooting gallery, dance hall & an ice-skating rink & in 1906, a replacement called ‘Wonderland City’, which was modelled on Coney Island. By 1911, it had also closed & the surf culture took over. Today the beach is referred to as ‘Glamarama’ for the beautiful people that have made it their own
