A large ring-of-rocks pool below Newcastle’s Fort Scratchley near Nobbys Beach. By 1883, large rocks formed a seawall defining an oval pool 180 yards long with a floor of coal shale and sand. Nowdays, at high tide, it can be easier to see the plaque on the Bathers Way that commemorates the pool, than the pool itself. Still a good place to snorkel.
