Coalcliff Rock Pool

Last updated October 2026

Coalcliff Rock Pool, off Paterson Road, is Wollongong's northernmost rock pool, with coastal views. It has a toddlers' pool next to the main pool, a raised shower area and a viewing platform, beside patrolled Coalcliff Beach. There is no lifeguard service at Wollongong's rock pools, and council says most suit swimming at low tide. Supervise children and keep eye or hand contact at all times. The pool closes while council cleans it (dates are posted on its council page).

Facts checked against the venue's own website on 22 October 2026.
