Patrons are encouraged to bring along picnic baskets, pool-towels and sunscreen for a day of swimming at the pools.

With helpful staff, pristine facilities and beautiful swimming pools Newlands Swimming Pool is a must visit.
If all of this seems too good to be true, wait until you hear about the entrance fee R9 per adult and R3. You heard that correctly, a day of fun filled swimming out in the sun has never been this affordable.
