Cleopatra's Pool
A natural rock pool in a forest stream beside Torrent Bay, where moss-covered rock forms a natural water slide.
Cleopatra's Pool sits on the Torrent River on the west side of the Torrent Bay lagoon, about 20 minutes off the coast track. Clear stream water gathers into a deep pool between granite boulders, and on one side a moss-covered rock face forms a natural slide, down which you can slide into the water in summer. The water is cold and the rocks are slippery, so take care. At low tide you can walk across the lagoon from Torrent Bay to reach it; at high tide, an inland detour is required.
