Razorback Rock is a unique geological formation located in Black Head, NSW. This spot catches the eye with its striking appearance, resembling a jagged spine that juts out from the surrounding landscape. It's not just a pretty sight; the area around Razorback Rock offers some great opportunities for rockpool hunting and is where you will find the Crystal Pools!

The most important thing to consider when visiting Crystal Pools is the tide and swell. You want to visit a couple of hours either side of low tide and when the swell is slight.

The walk to Crystal Pools is easy provided you go during the tide and swell mentioned above. It’s basically all flat and when the tide is low, there is no need to walk in any water.

Make sure to wear shoes for this one because the rocks are very sharp.

From the parking area at the southern end of Black Head Beach, walk for 70m across the sand to the ocean bath.

Pass alongside the ocean bath and bear right, from here you have a little bit of rock hopping and walking on the rock shelf.

You need to bear left along the rock platform and as you round the corner you will start to see the sharper jagged rocks.

You’ll come to the first pool 300m after leaving the beach, the second is 70m further on and the third 30m beyond that.
