Dee Why Rockpool
Last updated October 2026
Dee Why Rockpool is a 50 m ocean pool with a toddlers area at the southern end of Dee Why Beach. No lifeguard service is listed for the pool itself; the council says lifeguards patrol Dee Why Beach all year round. The pool closes regularly for cleaning and refilling, so check the council cleaning roster before you go. The council lists accessible toilets and showers, and the fenced playground in Ted Jackson Reserve is next to the beach. Within a short walk (OpenStreetMap) are Gusto on the Beach (cafe, about 140 m), Girdlers (cafe, about 270 m), IGA Local Grocer Dee Why Beach (supermarket, about 280 m) and United Dee Why Beach (convenience store, about 290 m), plus several restaurants.
