    Description

    Delightful, welcoming Helensburgh pool. An impeccably clean 25m heated outdoor pool delivering drool-worthy sparkles. Plus a shaded and fully fenced toddler pool.

    There are shaded benches and a wide grass area, which is famously full of bindies (prickles) in the summer! This pool is beloved by locals, so you might find yourself sharing a lap lane. It also gets popular with kiddies after school. But it’s only a short walking distance to the shops and a wonderful playground and outdoor gym. This pool has a local reputation for being ‘fresher’ than other chlorinated pools, so if you’re sensitive to chlorine — why not try the ‘burgh?

    Note: Like most open-air heated pools, the weather and season make a big difference to the water temperature. Expect variation in temperature between 18 and 25 degrees.

    The open-roofed change rooms are very spacious but have only one ‘hot’ (read: lukewarm) shower.

    Entry is FREE ! 

    Opening hours: 6 am – 7 pm daily – Closed Christmas Day
    This pool reopens on the 23rd September
    (Closed annually between April and mid-September.)
