Welcome to the Venetian Pool Official Website for the City of Coral Gables!
     
   

The Venetian Pool will be closing from September 8, 2008 through April 30, 2009 for renovations. We apologize for the inconvenience.

     
   

The Venetian Pool is truly a unique aquatic facility unlike no other in the Country.  The Pool has been enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world.

The unique nature of this facility lies in its creation and features that enhance the aquatic facility for its visitors.  The pool was created in 1923 from a coral rock quarry.  Coral Rock borders surround the pool accented by Venetian style rock construction of two towers on the property.

The most distinguishing feature of the pool is the 820,000 gallons that is fed by spring water from an underground aquifer.  In the spring and summer seasons, the pool is filled and drained into the aquifer daily!  Of course the aquifer is not the only feature that enhances a visitor’s experience.  There are two waterfalls that provide fun and a scenic background and the caves and grottos provide a fun experience for swimmers.

The Venetian Pool’s beauty is accentuated with its loggias, porticos, palm trees and signature bridge.  It truly is an experience you will never forget!
