Fairy Bower Sea Pool

Fairy Bower Sea Pool, located along Marine Parade in Manly, is a historic 20-metre rockpool. This unique triangular-shaped pool was built by local residents in 1929 and is one of several rockpools along the coast that were cut and blasted out of the rocks.

Every week, between Wednesday and Friday night, the Fairy Bower rockpool undergoes a thorough cleaning. Pool cleaning signs are put up at least 24 hours in advance to notify visitors of the cleaning schedule. However, it's important to note that the published times may change due to weather conditions, tidal flows, and surf conditions. The time it takes to refill the pool after cleaning can vary depending on the weather and surf conditions as well.

During the refilling process, a sign is placed at the pool indicating its closure, but it is removed as soon as the pool is full. Any other closures of the pool, aside from regular cleaning, will be listed on the website for visitors to be aware of. For any questions or inquiries about the rockpool cleaning rosters, visitors can contact the Council at 1300 434 434.

Fairy Bower Sea Pool is conveniently situated on Marine Parade in Manly, New South Wales, with easy access for visitors. It offers a unique and picturesque swimming experience, surrounded by the stunning coastal scenery of the area.

As a respectful gesture, the Northern Beaches Council acknowledges and pays respect to the Traditional Custodians of the land on which Fairy Bower Sea Pool is located. They recognise and honour the Elders past, present, and emerging, as well as the spirits and ancestors of the Clans who have inhabited this area.
