Boat Pool is a managed aquatic facility located within the South Bank Parklands in Brisbane City. It features a concrete-lined lagoon with chlorinated water, offering a controlled swimming environment separate from the nearby artificial beach. The area includes accessible entry points and is surrounded by paved seating ledges and shade trees. Visitors use the space for cooling off during summer months or resting between park activities. The pool maintains regular lifeguard patrols to ensure the safety of all swimmers throughout the day.
The facility sits in a central position within the parklands, making it easily reachable from the Goodwill Bridge. It provides views across the river towards the central business district. Nearby amenities include public change rooms, showers, and drinking fountains to accommodate large groups.
