Hong Kong Pools
Swimming is a fun and healthy activity for people of all ages. It has been shown to improve cardiovascular and respiratory fitness, lower stress levels, decrease blood pressure, aid weight loss and boost moods. It’s also a great way to relax and soak up the summer sunshine. Thankfully, Hong Kong is home to some of the world’s most stunning pools – from The Peninsula’s luxurious indoor sand pool overlooking Victoria Harbour to The Ritz-Carlton’s glass bottomed 82nd floor pool.
While hk pool restrictions are currently in place, many public and hotel pools are open and ready to welcome swimmers. However, some are open during the day only and others close for cleaning or maintenance at different times of the week. Check the Leisure and Cultural Services Department website for more details before heading to your local swimming pool.
