The summer heat in Hong Kong can leave you wanting to stay indoors with a cold glass of wine or take a dip into an ice-cold pool. Fortunately, there are plenty of hk pools to choose from where you can cool off and enjoy the city’s stunning views.

The glistening vistas from the 25-meter infinity pool at Rosewood Hong Kong will take your breath away. Lap a few laps alongside Victoria Harbour and take in the picturesque sunrises and sunsets from this rooftop paradise. The best part is that you can access the pool even if you’re not a hotel guest. Non-hotel guests can buy a pool pass that lets them enter the resort-like swimming area on weekdays for four hours at HKD 600 per adult and HKD 300 per child. The pass also gives you discounts on drinks and snacks at their on-site pool bar.

Located in the heart of Sai Kung, this public swimming pool is a great choice for kids and adults alike. The large leisure pool is lined with water slides and fountains that can entertain the kids while you swim a few laps. There are even some waterslides that are suitable for older kids and teens. There is a family changing room at the pool, too.

This massive swimming complex is a must-visit for families with kids. Its three outdoor leisure pools — complete with waterfalls and rocks — are lined with fun water installations, including mushroom and tree-shaped fountains. There’s also a diving pool and two teaching pools, plus a large kiddie pool with a range of slides.

While it’s a bit too far from the action for most, this olympic-sized swimming pool at the Hong Kong Sports Centre is worth a trip if you can spare the time to get there. The huge pool is surrounded by seating areas and food vendors, while the main pool itself has a large spectator stand that can seat nearly 1,000 people.

The first of its kind in Asia, this unique building was designed by architects Derek Walker and Simon Kwan and completed in 1989 as part of the redevelopment of Kowloon Park. The soaring structure is covered by a translucent, insulated tensile membrane called Birdair’s Tensotherm which helps minimize glare. The design is a reflection of the cultural identity and historical importance of the region.

There’s no better way to cool off than with a refreshing swim in one of these hk pools, especially with breathtaking cityscapes as your backdrop. So pack your swimsuit, grab an Octupus card and make a splash on your next visit to Hong Kong!
