Top 5 Hong Kong Pools

If you’re looking to get your swim on without spending the night in a hotel, a few laps in one of Hong Kong’s many rooftop pools will do the trick. But these aren’t your average pool: they overlook the city’s iconic harbour and skyline, and offer a relaxing escape from the hustle of the city. With drinks and snacks available at the hotel bar, they’re perfect for impressing out-of-town guests, or just a weekend activity with friends.

The largest swimming pool in the Southern District, Ma On Shan Swimming Pool is spacious and overlooks Tolo Harbour. It has a main pool, diving pool, training and teaching pool, and two kid-friendly pools with water features and sprinklers. Kids are also sure to love the four waterslides, including the two highest and fastest waterslides in the country.

Located in the centre of Wan Chai, this public swimming pool is an oasis of relaxation. The indoor and outdoor pools are surrounded by lush greenery, while the terraces provide breathtaking views of Victoria Harbour. This makes it a popular spot for locals to soak up the sun and enjoy a refreshing dip.

In addition to the pools, the refurbished pool area is equipped with cabanas and an outdoor lounge, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. A new poolside snack menu is available, and there is also a coffee shop. For those staying at the hotel, a weekend by the pool package is offered, which includes daily breakfast, a credit of HK$ 800 and more.

For those looking for a more intimate experience, there are several swanky hotel rooftop pools that are open to the public for a fee. These pools can be booked through spa packages, or you can simply pay a day pass to swim in the lap of luxury. However, these pools do tend to be quite pricey – and a hefty $950 for a day pass will make you think twice about doing your laps!

The crystal clear waters of Bride’s Pool are a popular destination for hikers. Located near Tai O, this series of waterfalls and pools are accessible via the Man Cheung Po Nature Trail, a scenic, family-friendly trail. While the hike to the pool is a sweaty endeavor, the views of mountaintops and sea in the distance make it well worth the effort.
