Gentlemen’s Pool (or Men’s Baths)

One of the region’s earliest rock pools, this small pool is set in the rock platform just north of the popular Continental Pool at North Wollongong. Very natural setting, with rock walls and bottom covered in shells and plant life. This spot becomes very popular with all sorts of swimmers in the warmer weather. A long ramp takes you down to the pebbly strip that meets the rock shelf, not the easiest access for people with limited mobility or prams. Lots of space on the bumpy rocks to spread a towel.

Open year round, free of cost.

Facilities: nothing at this rock pool. At the next door to the Continental Pools: changing rooms, toilets, cold showers
