π Make a splash in history at Beverley Whitfield Ocean Pool! πββοΈ
Tucked along the stunning Shellharbour Village foreshore, this 50m saltwater pool has been a community favourite since the 1890s! Originally built in 1895, this local gem was lovingly upgraded and renamed in the 1990s to honour Olympic gold medallist Beverley Whitfield. π₯π
The pool is perfect for laps, family fun, or a relaxing coastal dip.
