Shelly Beach Rock Pool, Natural ocean pool in Cronulla, Australia
The Shelly Beach Rock Pool features a rocky shoreline with a sandy entry bank, creating a safe swimming environment near Cronulla Beach.
The pool was integrated into the coastal development of Cronulla during the early expansion of Sydney's southern beachside suburbs in the 20th century.
Local families gather at this pool throughout summer months, maintaining a tradition of outdoor swimming that defines Australian coastal communities.
The pool includes wheelchair access, nearby barbecues, a fenced playground with a liberty swing, and a kiosk across the road.
The natural rock formation creates different water depths, allowing both children and adults to enjoy swimming in their preferred sections of the pool.
