Maccallum Pool Cremorne Point

By: Maryam Mandehgari

 A unique harbourside pool with heritage character and superb views, Maccallum Pool, is on the western side of Cremorne Point. Its waterside timber deck is an unparalleled sun bathing spot - especially on winter afternoons.
With a timber sunbathing deck and harbour views, this is One of the most mystical pools in Sydney. With sloping lawns and free entry, what better place to get out of the hustle and bustle of the Bondi to Bronte coastal walk for a change and find this turquoise beauty at a fork on the Cremorne Point walk.
It was originally just a rock pool created by local residents to form a safe harbour swimming hole. The architectural style of the current pool dates back to the 1920s and was restored in keeping with this heritage theme by the local council in 1985-86.

Address: Milson Road, Cremorne Point NSW 2090

Reviews & Ratings:

-"Great pool to swim in or, have a relaxing time under the nearby trees" 4.5/5
-"This is a free pool and a real gift to those living close by. Nestled in bush on the harbour it is well maintained and long enough to complete laps. It was a pleasure to start my day with a swim in this pool." 4/5
-"A neighborhood gem. Tiny pool which is great for a quick dip after work. The pool is rather small so not ideal for doing laps but good enough for kids to practice swimming. Good spot to soak in some afternoon sun." 5/5
