Tidal Treats

Perched on the rugged rock platform of Woonona Point, this historic ocean pool stands as a monument to coastal endurance. Unlike modern, sterilized seaside developments, Woonona has proudly retained its original, mid-century baths and concrete shower block, anchored right onto the ancient basalt stone. Titled Tidal Treats, this striking top-down fine-art print isolates the uniform, man-made lines of the pool and the weathered architecture of the changing stalls against the wild, irregular textures of the reef. Caught at the exact moment the high tide breaches the concrete walls, the translucent turquoise water and swirling foam wash over the complex—bridging the gap between the Illawarra's nostalgic swimming heritage and the raw, timeless energy of the Pacific.

Print Options
Available as an Open Edition fine art print on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm or Metallic Pearl 310 gsm museum quality, printed with archival pigment inks for exceptional longevity and colour accuracy. Every premium print is expertly crafted and produced locally in the Illawarra.

Presentation
Framed prints are presented with a double mat and UV-protective acrylic glazing in your choice of Black, White, or Oak timber frame. Framed canvas and Metallic Float Framed options are available in the same frame colours, with Dark Oak also available for the float frame. 

About the Framing

All frames are crafted from premium timber mouldings in your choice of Black, White, or Tasmanian Oak finish, with Dark Oak available for the Metallic Float Framed option. Frames up to A2 use a 30mm profile - A1 and A0 step up to a 40mm profile to suit the scale of the work.

Framed Prints are mounted behind a double mat with a 6cm border all around — an inner and outer mat board that creates depth and draws the eye into the image — and finished with UV-protective acrylic glazing to guard against fading and dust.

Framed Canvas prints are float mounted within the frame with a deliberate gap between the canvas edge and the frame rebate, giving the work a contemporary gallery feel. No glazing is used, preserving the natural texture of the canvas surface.

Metallic Float Framed prints are similarly float mounted, allowing the distinctive lustre and edge of the Metallic Pearl substrate to remain fully visible. No glazing required — the metallic surface presents its own unique statement and robust durability.

All of our fine art pieces are handcrafted locally by our trusted experts here in the Illawarra, ready to hang on your walls, straight from the protective packaging box.
