Yerralahla, the Aboriginal name for Blue Pool, is a calm body of water fed by West Canungra Creek, and is a great swimming hole. Like any swimming hole in the bush, there are no lifeguards on duty and a risk of leeches. There are signs here stating not to dive or jump in the water as it's deceivingly shallow, but it's an awesome spot for a dip mid-hike on a hot day.
