Barrier Reef Pools – Sydney South
The southern two-thirds of NSW coast consist primarily of short to medium length sandy beaches nestled between rocky headlands. Where those headlands consist of sandstone, it has made possible the construction of pools in ideal locations – away from shifting sands but near temperatures suitable for swimming. Ocean pools are part of Sydney’s moniker as “Sandstone City”, adding another dimension to its abundance of beaches – which only outshone by harborside pools!
Balmoral Baths in Sydney is one such pool. A 50m outdoor pool with an additional small one specifically for kids has been open since 1879 – an iconic must-visit landmark!
Nielsen Park in Vaucluse boasts one sand-filled rock pool, while others can be found along cliffs at Nielsen, Rose Beach and Dawn Fraser Baths in Australia Bay. While all are worth visiting, be sure to consult the Bureau of Meteorology’s surf forecast before heading out; large waves or unsafe swell conditions should prompt an advisories on swimming due to potential danger.
A rock pool located north of Sydney known as The Wedge is relatively less well known but well worth visiting for its beauty and convenience – perfect for summer dips with views up towards the base of cliffs if desired! You could even choose to swim up there and have lunch.
