Kapāolono Community Park Pool

This pool is an absolute find. It's about a 30 minute walk from the tail end of Waikiki, at the Honolulu Zoo end. You eyeball Diamond Head as you are swimming your laps. Dianne, the pool manager is a gem. Admission is free and there are morning and afternoon time windows for lap swimmers. Thanks to Dustin at the Queen Kapiolani Hotel for finding it for me. If you want to lap swim whilst on vacation and your hotel pool doesn't cut it, this is the pool for you.

The steps are flush to the pool walls making entry and exit difficult for some.
