Hot ocean pools at 9 Adams Avenue, Mount Maunganui, Tauranga. We hear the pools are closed because of landslides on Mauao earlier this year, with no reopening date given. The website says the venue and the site are being assessed with Tauranga City Council, and that reopening will happen only if it is safe. The massage therapists are continuing treatments at Baywave, on the corner of Girven Road and Gloucester Road.
When open, the venue has three outdoor pools at different temperatures, for soaking, for swimming and walking, and a children's pool, plus two outdoor spas and three indoor private pools. The water is natural ocean water with chlorine added, and the pools range from 27 to 40 degrees. Children aged 10 and under must be actively supervised. Entry does not need to be booked in advance, but private pools should be booked online. The website also lists a Tauranga Residents Card.
