Hong Kong might not immediately come to mind as an idyllic swimming destination, but the Chinese Special Administrative Region actually features many picturesque spots where swimming can take place – from world’s highest pool to natural infinity ponds in the mountains, Hong Kong offers some amazing spots where swimmers can soak up some water. Here are the city’s coolest places for taking a dip.

Hotel WET deck is not just known for its stunning pools; it is also famous for hosting stylish yet wild poolside parties during summer – you might even catch sight of one or two celebrities!
While the deck may be overcrowded for most visitors, you are sure to find a peaceful stretch of pool to call your own. Constructed using 144 LED screens displaying illustrations of tree canopies, coral reefs, and other nature scenes, so you can relax without being bored while swimming around in water.
After eight years of planning, this spaceship-style municipal pool finally made its debut at Victoria Harbor in February. Designed by architect Terry Farrell and Partners, the striking structure stands as a reminder of Hong Kong’s verticality from both waterside views as well as from its observation decks featuring glass floor panels giving guests the sense of being submerged underwater or swimming through outer space.
Hotel guests may use the pool at no cost; non-hotel guests must pay an entry fee. Make sure to pick up an Octupus card on your way out – this will enable access to public transit as well as many restaurants and swimming pools that require payment to enter.
At the heart of Southern District lies an expansive complex featuring several pools with differing sizes and activities, from swimming laps in the main pool to honing dive skills in the diving pool – and then finally splashing around with kids in two kid-friendly pools complete with water features, sprinklers, and slides for play!
