outdoor pools

Uncovered swimming spots

Outdoor pools are swimming pools located outside rather than enclosed in a building.

The term distinguishes them from indoor pools, typically in contexts where the difference matters—weather considerations, seasonal availability, or amenities at hotels and recreation centers: The resort has both indoor and outdoor pools.

Unlike indoor pools, outdoor pools in temperate climates often close during colder months.
