Get ready to cool off, because Jamberoo Pool will open earlier than anticipated this year.

Following requests from locals, Kiama Council passed a motion on 17 October 2023 to open the pool earlier than the previously scheduled date of 3 December 2023.

The pool will now open on Monday 20 November instead, nearly two weeks earlier than scheduled, and close on Sunday 24 March next year. Access to the pool will remain free.

“We’re pleased to be able to grant this community request and we thank them for their initiative in bringing this to Council,” said Director of Planning, Environment and Communities Jessica Rippon.

“We invite the community to come to Jamberoo Pool and enjoy the facility throughout what is predicted to be a hot summer.”

The pool will stay open on Monday - Friday from 12:30pm to 6:30pm, and weekends from 9:30am to 6:30pm.

From 15 December until 28 January, the pool will be open every day from 9:30am to 6:30pm, but will be closed on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
