Towradgi Rock Pool

Very similar to Bellambi in my opinion. Towradgi Rock Pool is a 50m Olympic pool that runs parallel to the ocean. Terrific views of the coast to the north and south, and lots of history here. This pool was built by local volunteer labour in the 60’s and has been a local favourite ever since. It has a ramp entrance (which gets slippery) and tiered concrete seating platforms that get nicely warmed. There is also a toddler’s pool here.

As with many of the pools on this list, there doesn’t really seem to be much of a difference between the ‘shallow’ and ‘deep’ end. But Towradgi Rock Pool is definitely popular for lap swimming, though the waves hit hard at high tide and make everything wild. There are stairs to get down to the pool area.

Open year round, free of cost.
