Andrew (Boy) Charlton Pool

Lovely spot. Staff were attentive and friendly. Easy to order food from a QR code at the table. I had a yummy green bowl for breakfast but was also tempted by the look of their eggs on sourdough. 🤔 Maybe I'll just have to go back.

ABC pool- I had a lovely swim here this morning, apparently it’s one of the best public pool locations in Sydney.
The outdoor 50m pool has lanes to suit every level of swimmer - slow to fast. It’s a saltwater pool so no chlorine smell which is really nice and the salt helps with buoyancy, water depth from 1.2m-2m. The 20m leisure pool has shaded and is perfect for chilling out. Tuition with VLAD is available too!
The cafe is a good place to chill after some laps. Changing rooms are great - plenty of bench space and showers although a couple didn’t have shower gel/cream. I’ll definitely come here again soon.

Wow - spectacular saltwater pool right on Sydney Harbour, incredible. Feels like you’re swimming amongst the battle ships. This Sydney public pool is iconic - it’s sensational.

Excellent long course pool. The view is great and the facilities are clean. It’s a salt water pool, which is refreshing, but can be an adjustment if you’re not used to it. This pool is also popular, so be prepared to share a lane. If you’re an American, get ready to enjoy clockwise circle swimming. There is also a shallow splash pool for small kids. They also sell swimwear, googles, and some other equipment, so don’t fret if you don’t remember something.

Lovely pool for a swim, right next to the botanic gardens. Has great views over the bay and place to chill and get tan.

Killer little spot, salt water pool. Friendly environment however, somewhat limited space.

Showers, a cafe, good location.. it’s one of the nicest pools in Sydney I think for what it offers.

$7 entry!

Would recommend.

One of the best public pool locations in Sydney and the facilities are 💯

One of my favourite swimming pool in sydney (outdoor) I like that they have different lanes for different speeds and swimming levels.
Can be very crowded on weekends (when hot weather)kids swimming pool is heated, which is good but kids never want to leave the pool haha.
Change rooms (male) will need to be renovated but otherwise nothing more to add.
There is a cafe at the entrance but never had a change to try it.

Fantastic outdoor swimming pool in Sydney's Woolloomooloo! Acid-salty water will keep you feeling the natural ocean swim experience! Recommend it for all outdoor swimming lovers!

Good price for a fun swim. Very new very nice staff, great view. Take a walk in the garden get a swim in what a great evening.

Outdoor pool. Lose to the Sydney CBD, a tad east. Great location, amazing views and not too busy to get a good workout in as well.

Pool comes with all the facilities. Lifeguards and everything you need for a full and safe experience.

Highly recommended.

Has to be the best pool in Sydney.
Good pools, lifeguards always on watch great views of navy fleet base.
Pools are clean, well priced at $7.50 and good change facilities.

By far one of the best pools
In Sydney… the view alone, the location adds a level of seclusion and peace. With a great cafe on site, it’s has almost everything you can want.

Such an amazing pool! Come here with my kids all the time, as there is a little pool for my toddler, and a 50m pool for my oldest. I highly recommend you come here!

Best pool in the entire world!!!
Lovely place to exercise over the weekend to disconnect and recharge yourself!
Expectacular view and comfortable facilities.
Friendly staff always willing to help.
There's also a nice coffee shop for either breakfast and lunch as well as for a quick snack.
A truly hidden gem of the city.

Love this pool! It's just over a km walk from my work, i get to swim for half an hour then I walk back. Nice way to spend my lunch hour! The water is salt water treated, has lanes dedicated for laps, slow, medium, fast and free play. A separate small pool for children play. Has a gorgeous view of the harbour for added bonus. Easily the best outdoor pool in Sydney CBD. Pool Deck cafe has great food as well.

Fantastic salt/sea water pool that is reasonably priced and has friendly staff. The change room/shower facilities are great as well. Perfect place to start your day in Summer.

This is a great place to go swimming right in the heart of Sydney but without all the crowds that you might find at some of the other pools in places like Bondi. The pool is a mix of saltwater and chlorine and it wasn't too crowded. There are a few lanes for laps and a free swim section as well. after you're done swimming you can get a bite to eat or drink at the great Cafe above the pool. The views are amazing and it is a very relaxing place to spend an afternoon.

Love swimming here. Outdoor 50m pool. Usually very busy but sometimes at night you might score a lane to yourself before closing. Salt water pool so you won't smell like chlorine all day, but take a water bottle as you'll be parched!

Wish it stayed open through winter but it would be super cold.

Love this place. The staff have been brilliant through some testing times 2020/2021. The views are unbeatable. With a 20 visit pass you're paying less than 6 dollars to get in. Hot and cold showers. Plenty of parking. One on one lessons available with the brilliant coaches at Vladswim. I could go on. As of Dec 2021 the Cafe is regrettably out of business and greatly missed. Bring goggles. The water is treated sea water and can get very salty. All up, 5 stars.
