Beverley Whitfield Ocean Pool

Beverley Whitfield Ocean Pool is a 50-metre saltwater pool located at the southern end of the Shellharbour Village foreshore at 19 Hockey Esplanade. Set within beautiful coastal surrounds, it’s a popular place to swim, relax and enjoy the outdoors.

The pool features a newly constructed access ramp and staircase, improving accessibility and making it easier for visitors of all abilities to enjoy the water safely and comfortably.

With BBQ facilities, picnic tables, public toilets, outdoor showers, and a shaded children’s pool, it’s an ideal destination for families, social gatherings and leisurely days by the sea.

The pool has been a cherished part of the Shellharbour community since 1894, when it was originally known as the Ocean Baths. In 1994, it was renamed to honour local Olympic swimmer Beverley Whitfield, recognising her outstanding sporting achievements and connection to the area. 

The cleaning of the pool will occur at 1pm every Tuesday. The scheduled days and times for cleaning may change due to staff availability, surf and weather conditions. Follow us on Facebook for updates.  Download a copy of the cleaning schedule.
