Its a scandle that aberdeen council has shut this down. A vital asset to the community has been torn out.

OK so this is a good pool to go to for fun or for fitness. I go in the morning before work. There are lanes set up which is great and it no too busy either.

I go to the Bucksburn pool all the time as it is local, child friendly and a very good place to swim. The pool is a little bit cold but for the reasons above, I think it is a great place to go on rainy days or just if you feel like it. I would definitely recommend going there

A great traditional swimming pool. My son gave this a four out of 5 as it has no slides. However, on a Sunday they put balls, floats, and sinkies in the pool. My son and i had a great time.
