Located on the eastern side of Palm Beach at the southern end. The rockpool is 50 metres long and access is off Ocean Road.
Change rooms and toilets are available. Pay and display parking available.
Please note, Palm Beach rockpool will not be available approximately three hours prior to listed cleaning times and approximately 12 hours after, depending upon prevailing seas.
Please note published times in the roster are subject to change depending on weather, prevailing seas, tidal flows and other surf conditions. The time taken to fill a pool after cleaning on any given day can vary and is dependent on the weather and surf conditions. A sign will be placed at the pool indicating it is closed during the filling process and will be removed as soon as possible once the pool is full.

Please contact Council on 1300 434 434 should you have any questions regarding the rock pool cleaning rosters.
We are currently experiencing issues with refilling of a number of our rockpools. Refilling of the rockpools occurs through a combination of in-situ pool pumps, ocean tide levels and swell conditions, and a portable pool pump when possible.
There has been limited swell recently and high tides are at the lower end of their cycle which extends the time taken for pools to refill. Pool pumps are being run when possible however they can only run during limited windows around high tides and some are being impacted by weed matter in the ocean.
