Currumbin Rock Pools
Currumbin Rock Pools are located 12km away from Currumbin beach, although the route is well signposted, you may drive straight past it. The rock pools are down in a valley so keep a lookout for locals cars on the side of the road... you might miss the sign.
Get back to nature and slide down the smooth rocks, which has created a natural waterside and make a splash into the shallow pool at the bottom. If you are a thrill-seeker, then be sure to check out the other side of the pools, where often, kids and adults are screaming like George in the jungle as they jump off the cliffs and make a big splash into the deep swimming holes. (Caution is advised as it is very difficult to gauge water depth).
Pack a picnic as there are several gazebos with picnic tables and BBQ facilities as well as a large grassed area (perfect for a picnic and a family game of cricket).
