Get In the Swim of Things and Then Some

Indoor Swimming Pools

Let’s begin with the fact that we love our beaches. They are spectacular and they are there to enjoy 365 days a year. However, we realize that beautiful blue Atlantic Ocean can also turn a person blue pretty darn quick once those winter winds start blowing in. So for all you swimmers out there (and with all due respect to those brave souls who partake in those Polar Bear Dips) we thought it best to provide you with the truly lovely and temperature-controlled collection of indoor swimming pools located right here along Nova Scotia’s South Shore.
