Hong Kong summers can be hot and humid, making public swimming pools an invaluable oasis. Not only can these beautiful pools help escape the heat but they’re also great places to burn off energy while socialising with family and friends. If you are considering moving here or already live here, make sure that you locate a pool suitable for children in your neighborhood.
Hong Kong stands out among other cities by being run primarily by its Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), which oversees most public pools. There are 22 public pools under their management with entrance fees of HK$17 on weekdays and 19 on weekends; discounts may also be given for persons with disabilities, students aged between 3-13, or anyone aged 60+.
Hongkong pools boast incredible views of Victoria Harbour or the city skyline, while others provide the ideal place for relaxation after an eventful day. One popular outdoor pool in town is InterContinental Grand Stanford’s outdoor pool featuring three infinity pools which allow users to feel as if they’re floating above water itself. After swimming laps you can relax with drinks at their tea deck dining area or whirlpool.

Private swimming pools in the city offer another appealing option to residents; many are found within larger developments with multiple towers that feature outdoor pools with splash parks for children to use as they release excess energy and enjoy splashing about. Such pools often act as selling points when looking to move to newer neighborhoods; these provide children with the perfect place to release any extra kinetic energy while relaxing or having fun!
