Fitzroy Swimming Pool

I love the Fitzroy pool but the whole place is in desperate need of some TLC. The gym was recently closed for a refurb where they did nothing to fix major issues with the layout of the space and even removed some equipment (bar bells) and haven’t replaced them. Getting a locker downstairs has become impossible with half the lockers missing doors or out of action indefinitely. No sign of any progress being made coming into summer.

Pretty good, have definitely seen better but it’s just a 50m outdoor pool. If that’s what you’re looking for it’s definitely worth the trip. Pool is not super heated so if you stay in one spot you’ll go cold. Plenty of clean changing facilities, I really enjoyed the outdoor hot shower to rinse off after the swim. Pool is on the old side, but relatively clean. Bits of debri and strange shapes on the bottom of the pool so not 100% clean. Went around 2pm on a Monday and it wasn’t that busy, managed to get a lane to myself. Parking is very annoying; you need to find a free spot on one of the one way streets around the place.
