Queenscliff Rock Pool

👍👌

Nice Rockpool in a good location with beautiful scenery and close to clean facilities and shops

Queenscliff Rock pool was located at the end of manly Beach ⛱️ its a well maintained pool with enough length and width. There was adequate warning ⚠️ signs 🛑 not to jump from the higher grounds or from the rokes. Its a free 🆓 public pool and anyone can use it.

The eastern guard rail is broken from the force of the waves. It’s not enough to stop three slender brown boys from clinging on to it, turning to free fall into the 1937 concrete sea pool when the white spray hits. The sea pool’s location—Queenscliff—becomes apparent when one boy swears, only to be sharply rebuked by his mate: “Language!” You’ll find this sea pool by either crossing the golden sand from Queenscliff Surf Lifesaving Club on Manly side of the creek, or by a stairway down the cliff from the Freshwater side. Be warned, this was a moderate surf day, if it is pounding with a south swell, this northern hook location might not be the safest place to swim or get to from either direction. The rocky outcrop has a great bench seat to watch the young boys jump from the rock into the pool, but be warned, some waves will reach your perch. Defaced signs tell you—of course—that this is forbidden. I liked the big briny smell, wildness and choppy pool waves here, that one surfboard rider was also enjoying.

An easy accessible ocean pool in Queenscliff. The facilities weren't as good as other ocean/rock pools that I've visited. Pretty views across to Manly from the rocky outcrop near pool accessed by stairs.
