Swimming - Delta Swimming Complex

Good Evening Blog,

January I have not been posting much, mainly because I was so busy these days at the workplace and after work, and my camera spoiled... (I don't have money to fix it yet... I hope I have enough money to fix it)

Today I had some pocket time to go for a short swim nearby and decided to visit Delta Swimming Complex, which is one of the oldest swimming pools in Singapore. It is best to visit those before any changes in future.

After dropping at Redhill MRT station (which is near Delta Swimming Pool), Just five minutes towards a bridge.
If you see this underpass for MRT, meaning you missed the bridge.
Ah... Green bricked wall swimming pool.
(credit Uncle E) The green bricked wall contrasts the bricked floor. Very nice depth.
Looks like alien green in colour - my imagination started to load.
Only for the old retro swimming pool, you will have an entrance with such a gate.
A place filled with tables and chairs for the parents to sit and chill while their kids have their swimming lessons.
Even if it is an old swimming pool, the changing room is relatively clean and quiet too. Itremindedd me of the old Bedok Swimming Pool. I love such a setting.
During the evening time, Delta Swimming Pool is surprisingly less crowded. Quiet and unique way of filtering the water (at the side)
A tall building standing above the pool, watching the pool. I bet they will like to dip in with me.
Alright then, I shall dip in now before the sunset.
Overall, Delta Swimming Complex is a clean and spacious pool. I can't take too many pictures as it will be rather sensitive towards other visitors. The middle pool is one of the shallowest middle pools I have ever visited so far - 0.9m depth (I can knee down and still keep my head up at ease) and the deep pool (I have not tried it) still has the diving platform (one of the few Singapore Swimming Pool which has it, as some pools had removed it completely). I would love to jump from it if given a chance.

I will visit this pool again whenever pocket time I have.

Update!
Delta Swimming Complex has undergone renovation, and I have not yet visited the new one, so I will go one day.
