This rock pool is in the southern suburb of Cronulla at a locale which is known as 'The Alley', situated between Cronulla Beach and North Cronulla Beach.

    Dzięki za komentarz jednak biorąc pod uwagę co pokazujesz, moje zdjęcia wyglądają jak świetliki. Ciekawa jestem jak mnie znalazłeś. Od kilkudziesięciu lat mam polską przyjaciółkę w Sydney.
    Pozdrawiam.
    Szczęśliwego nowego roku.

    A nice twist on a "beach"....I'm assuming there is no sand at this spot. Very interesting, thank you for sharing.
    Happy New Year!

    Debbie, the beaches that I mentioned on either side of 'The Alley' are sandy. This spot is popular for swimmers who don't like the crashing waves of the ocean at those beaches.

    I used to love sheltered pools like that - much warmer than the actual sea!

    what a great idea, saves the kids from drowning. We have many drowning this summer.

    My husband who has been to Hawaii tells me they have it at Waikiki beach.

    Its amazing that some places are in summer right now while we are in the dead of winter. The only people who brave the water here are the Polar Bear swimmers in my previous post!!
    I hope you are not affected by the horrible flooding we have seen here on our news.

    msdewberry, the devastating floods are quite a distance away in Queensland, but our thoughts are with those people affected. The rest of Australia and probably the world will feel the economic effects of these floods, down the track.

    I used to swim in those pools every weekend in the summers of the 50's. They haven't changed, which is remarkable.
