1 / 3McKenzie Baths Summer Pool
â Temporarily Closedđ Petone, Wellington
The affordable outdoor pool Petone families return to all summer, just a 15 minute walk from the train station. Friendly staff, clean changing rooms, and a BBQ to make an evening of it.
The summer destination this year. Fun for all the family. Have now made it a habit to go here after work. It is only a 15 minute walk from Petone train station, then jump in to cool off with the family. The BBQ is first on first serve, so make an evening of it and grab some sausage or steaks for dinner.
đ Family Action Verdict
This is the easy after-work or weekend cool-off spot for Petone families, just a 15 minute walk from the train station so you don't even need the car. Grab some sausages for the first-come BBQ and make an evening of it, the kids splash while you sort dinner. Best for warm summer days when you can also fit in some lane swimming for the adults.

âNice pool right here in Petone. $4 per adult is a good price. Even though it feels a waste, given the fact it's open just few weeks per year as, nz summer, is well known for being not very summerish". Recommendâ

Overview
The after-work swim that's become a Petone summer habit: just a 15 minute walk from the train station, so you can leave the car at home and let the kids splash while you sort dinner on the first-come BBQ (bring your own sausages). The changing rooms are clean and spacious, the staff are genuinely friendly, and the water's a good temperature for an outdoor pool. Best on warm days when the adults can fit in a few lengths too.
