Description

Where else could you find an inner city facility located within the Botanic Gardens, which services both local residents and city workers? This 50 metre pool is heavily patronised at all hours of the day and provides a little bit of heaven amongst the adjoining, high-rise towers. Recently threatened with demolition, the pool has made a comeback and is much loved by its patrons from all levels of society. Drinks and swim accessories are available in the shop.
