Fairy Pool, Forster

For those looking to be rewarded for some effort, this pool is the one. Located a short bush walk at the base of the rock walls between Burgess and McBrides Beach lays a stunning single, sandy bottom pool of crystal-clear water. The walk to get this pool is the trickiest bit. Follow the track at the end of Burgess Road down to the rocky beach. Turn right and walk across to the farthest bush, before a climb back up through the scrub. The entrance up the climb is to the left hand side of the gully. It is a steep entrance. Once at the top you can view the pool below you at an opening in the vegetation. Continue along through the bush, before descending to the rocky beach below using the rope for the steep decent. Double back along the rockface to the pool. Now you’re ready to enjoy this private oasis.
