History

Now three pools in one, the South Curl Curl Rock Pool started as a natural swimming spot that was turned into ocean baths in 1926. It wasn’t long before the pool was extended in the 1930s and the original wall became the new pool’s inner wall. When the men’s and women’s Amateur Swimming Clubs united in 1966, part of the pool was sectioned off to create a standard Olympic-size pool for their races. Today you can power up and down those 50-metre lanes, or simply relax in the basin area and wading pool while soaking up the view.

Water temperature by month

Much the same right along this stretch of the Sydney coast. Approximate — the water runs about a season behind the air.

Jan 22–23°C
Feb 23–24°C
Mar 23–24°C
Apr 22°C
May 20°C
Jun 19°C
Jul 18°C
Aug 18°C
Sep 18–19°C
Oct 19°C
Nov 20–21°C
Dec 21–22°C

Approximate. Sources disagree by a degree or two. The water lags the air by about a season, so autumn stays warm after the crowds leave and spring stays cold after summer seems to have started.
