Visited the other day. It didn't look like much but I encouraged the kids to give it a go as it was a long drive to get here. It was pretty busy given it was school holidays but we found a spot to place our things down and the kids went for a swim. There were a couple of rope swings tied in the trees and some people were swinging off these and dropping into the water and others were jumping from the rocks into the water. There are warning signs for a reason. Care needs to be taken if climbing the rocks as they can be slippery and diving into the water is at your own risk. It's quite rocky so waterproof shoes can help. Suitable for all ages. The little ones can play in the shallow areas and need to be supervised at all times. Be ware as it does get deep in the middle and you need to be a strong swimmer to get to the other side. I saw a toilet block, some tables and benches undercover and a bbq. It was a sunny day but there were some shady spots around. The water was refreshing. We spotted some ducks and a turtle 🐢 in the water. The kids ended up having the best time and didn't want to leave.
Great spot. Was fun until a tourist jumped off a 12m ledge. Struck his head on a rock underwater causing a serious laceration. Lucky to not be killed. TEST THE DEPTH BEFORE YOU JUMP
Children love it very much and it is close to nature, making it a great place for family outings and gatherings.
In the Currumbin river there are a number of rockpools. Not without danger as the rocks maybe slippery. Also, often, the more downstream the pool is the more unclear the water is, especially so on busy days when many oersons visit the upstream pools.
It’s a nice place. Easy access. Had warning signs as very dangerous. Nice to sit in the shallow rock pools. If game the big rock pool is quite big and deep but you can’t see in the water so check your surroundings and the depth first. People had picnics blankets and dogs. A bit of grass to sit on. Quite a bit of parking. Nice for a rock pool but I’ve been to a few nicer ones here.
