The craggy headland at Point Ross has that edge-of-the-world feel, with nothing but the wild ocean and Phillip Island and Nepean Island before you.

During low tide, you can look down on Crystal Pool from the nature reserve’s clifftop parking area. Here, rocks hem in a natural ocean-fed pool with waters so translucent you can spy fish below.

If you’re fit and strong (not to mention brave!), consider making the steep trek down to the mirror-clear rock pool. Depending on tide times and weather conditions, the descent can be treacherous, so you’ll need to go with a local guide who can ensure you get there safely. Ask at the Norfolk Island Visitor Information Centre for more details about access with a guide.
