McIver Women's Baths, Heritage swimming pool in Coogee, Australia
The McIver Women's Baths encompass a rock platform with concrete walls extending into the ocean, providing a natural seawater swimming environment at Coogee Beach.
Established in 1886, this swimming location initially served as a traditional bathing ground for Eora women before European settlement arrived in New South Wales.
The pool remains an exclusive women-only swimming venue where visitors from different backgrounds can wear their preferred swimming attire, from swimsuits to burkinis.
Located at Grant Reserve, the facility includes changing rooms, showers, and maintains regular hours that vary according to seasonal conditions and tidal movements.
Olympic medalists Fanny Durack and Mina Wylie developed their swimming abilities at these baths before competing in the 1912 Stockholm Games.
