The Marine Tidal Pool is situated below the Marine Hotel in Central Hermanus next to Bientang's Cave Restaurant hence the local nickname of “Bientangs se Baaigat”. Access is from the cliff path leading down to the pool via a set of steep steps.
It offers safe swimming for all but dive shoes/booties are recommended due to the sea urchins and sharp rocks. The pool offers good snorkelling at low tide and overlooks the ocean and surrounds. The Pool is also safer for children as it is separated from the crashing waves.
Starfish can often be seen and on occasion even a shark.
