Jubilee Pool, Penzance

Jubilee Pool

A triangular seawater pool in Art Deco style, built in 1935, with a geothermally heated pool alongside. You can soak in the pool while looking out at St Michael's Mount.

The pool is built on the rocks of Penzance seafront and is one of the largest open-air seawater pools in Britain. Its white and blue Art Deco design makes it very photogenic. Since 2020, a geothermal pool heated by deep underground wells (about 35°C) has been open all year, and bookings for time slots must be made in advance on the official website. The main pool is unheated and open in summer. The café by the pool overlooks Mount's Bay. Penzance is the transport hub of West Cornwall, and the railway terminus is nearby.
