Public BBQ

The Strand Rockpool offers a delightful experience for visitors. Its serene, well-maintained surroundings encompass a playground, flying fox, and swings, perfect for children, while adults can relax in the grass or enjoy a peaceful swim. The pool is filled with ocean water, providing a unique, natural swimming experience, although some visitors have noted occasional algae blooms. Visitors can also engage in fishing activities or explore the nearby walking track with stunning views of Magnetic Island. The area also includes a café with well-prepared meals and a fantastic view. Amenities include clean toilets and outdoor showers, although some visitors suggested the addition of indoor showers.
