Primbee is a small suburb of Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia.

It is located on the northern end of the Windang Peninsula separating Lake Illawarra and the Pacific Ocean.

The latter refers to a local legend that there was once a second entrance to Lake Illawarra located between Primbee and Kemblawarra Industrial Park.

The area was subdivided and the land was offered for sale in 1919, not as Primbee but as "The Lake Suburb".

One resident of the area in the 1920s recalled that "I came to Primbee in 1920... My parents were one of the first to buy property, when the estate was cut up.
