Keep Cool This Summer! At Local Pools in South Baltimore!

Update July 2023

By Danyelle J August 8, 2018

Well, the heat and summer are officially here! What better way to cool off then at one of South Baltimore's public swimming pools? 


ABC Park Splash Pad:

501 S. Catherine St - 21223

Received major renovations in 2019,  an open space splash pad where kids can run freely in the water without being submerged. Best kick that there is a playground right next to so you can dry off as you play!


Riverside Pool: 

1800 Covington Ave. 21230

443-934-7543

The Riverside Pool which has been renamed Splash City in 2019 is a colorful space that is welcoming to everyone who is trying to beat the heat or just enjoy summer! There is a big pool for the big kids and adults!  A wading pool which is really good for little people and for learning to swim. Plenty space to spread out and feel like a mini resort! 


FARRING-BAYBROOK POOL:

4501 Farring Ct. 21225

443-934-7584

The Farring-Baybrook Pool is a neighborhood pool. A few years ago the pool was given a paint job so it looks more up to date. The pool is big and surround by tree so there is a lot of shade. Very quiet not many people visit-must be a plus during a pandemic. My favorite thing to see there is the new murals place on the  REC center. 


Cherry Hill Indoor Pool:

101 Reedbird Ave.

443-934-7584

Check off the newly renovated indoor pool at Middle Branch/Cherry Hill! This is for the folks the love the pool but don't need the heat! Call ahead for times.
