Hong Kong Pools – The Best Places to Cool Off in the Heat

Hong Kong summers can be brutal. From scorching sun to oppressive humidity, keeping cool can be challenging – especially for children. Luckily there are great swimming pools around town that provide respite from heat and humidity – some even provide stunning views of Victoria Harbour!

Hong Kong pools offer one of the many attractions of living here: they’re open all year. In total there are 44 public swimming pools within Hong Kong city boundaries: nine on Hong Kong Island, 13 in Kowloon and 22 in New Territories that are managed by Leisure and Cultural Services Department.

Hong Kong boasts various types of pools, but outdoor pool complexes are the most sought-after. These complexes provide swimming for recreational, training and competition purposes alike; including multiple slides, diving boards and water features that cater to various interests. Some even boast cafes or snack bars for relaxing after your swim or before heading back into work!

Hk pools offer great advantages for everyone of all ages. Many are fenced with lifeguards on duty and cleaned regularly; plus many offer facilities to make life easier for the disabled and elderly so everyone can enjoy a day at the pool!

Hotels often boast luxurious hotel swimming pools for the ultimate swimming experience, which are often even better than public ones! Indulge in some luxury by swimming at one of their resort pools where they also feature pool bars with drinks from around the world as you admire harbor views from various hotel terraces or enjoy private beaches and water slides!

The Ritz-Carlton boasts one of the world’s finest pools, situated atop its hotel to offer breathtaking views of Victoria Harbor while you swim. Plus, with numerous lounge chairs and umbrellas to choose from – not to mention classes or yoga on its deck! – its pool truly ranks amongst the world’s finest.

The Peninsula Hotel Pool

The pool at The Peninsula hotel is located on the upper floor and is a favorite among both locals and tourists. Offering the perfect spot to unwind, guests can order cocktails or snacks from its bar while relaxing under its shaded or waterfall seating areas. Staff at the pool are extremely helpful; they’ll assist in finding shaded seats near a waterfall as well as answering any inquiries regarding pool facilities and amenities – they may even bring drinks directly to you if desired!
