A haven of heritage-listed charm.

Overview

It's not an exaggeration to say that there's no pool in Brisbane quite like the Spring Hill Baths — and if you're going to take a spring- or summer-time dip, there's really no better spot. The heritage-listed venue dates back to 1886, making it quite the institution. It was the city's first in-ground pool, and has remained a splash-about mainstay ever since. Opening at 6.30am every weekday, it's the kind of place that you'll be happy to jump out of bed for when the sun starts streaming through the windows. Within its sturdy walls, the water is crisp, the grandstand seating oozes charm and the day is calm. Happy swimming.
