If this past weekend showed us anything, it’s that this summer is going to be an absolute scorcher. Already, BC has experienced unseasonably hot weather, shattering dozens of records in the past 48 hours alone. The good news is, we’re about to get some more options for cooling down, because four outdoor public pools are set to reopen in Vancouver soon.
According to the City of Vancouver’s website, two outdoor pools are expected to open just in time for the May long weekend: The pools at Second Beach and New Brighton.
These outdoor pools will officially reopen for the season on May 20th.
Likewise, the Maple Grove and Hillcrest pools will welcome swimmers starting June 15th.
