Forty-four public swimming pool complexes across Hong Kong reopened on Wednesday as the city entered the summer swimming season, with some facilities set to close temporarily for maintenance works. Mui Wo Swimming Pool will operate from 8.30am to 6pm in two sessions, with an additional evening session from 7pm to 10pm on Fridays. The department noted that certain public swimming pools, including those at Victoria Park and Sham Shui Po Park, will be closed on selected dates in 2026 to facilitate maintenance works. The heated pools will remain open until April 15, while the non-heated facilities will open to the public starting April 16. During the swimming season, lifeguard services will be available daily from 9am to 6pm.
