Dawn Fraser Baths

First published on . Updated on .

Australia's oldest pool and swimming club, the Dawn Fraser Baths, feature a neat tidal flow salt water pool. Check the tide table online and make sure you get here when the beach is exposed, allowing little ones to play in the sand to their heart's content. The adjacent kiosk serves classic hot food snacks, ice cream and coffee, and the showering facilities provide hot water - it's like a dream.

The baths open in September for the swimming season.
