Maccallum Pool - Parks, playgrounds and sportsgrounds

Maccallum Pool, on the western side of Cremorne Point, is a unique 33-metre harbourside pool with heritage character and superb views.

The pool is always open and only closes for cleaning as detailed below.

Cleaning schedule

Because the pool is above the high-water mark and it is filled with water directly from the harbour, it needs to be regularly cleaned.

The pool is cleaned once a week (tide dependent) and requires closure to reduce the health and safety risks of an empty or half-full pool. Once the pool is refilled to an adequate level it is reopened to the public.

The pool is closed for cleaning on the following dates:

June 

• from Tuesday 25 June 12.30am, until Wednesday 26 June 7am

July

• from Monday 1 July 5.30am, until Tuesday 2 July 7am
