About this spot
Arao Citizens' Pool is a municipal outdoor pool open from July 18 to August 16, 2026. What stands out is the sheer variety of pools: a 50-meter certified pool, a 25-meter pool, a relaxation pool, a children's pool, and a pool for young children, giving you options suited to your purpose and age. There's also a water slide. It's remarkable that all these facilities are available for just 210 yen for adults, 150 yen for high school students, and 100 yen for children age 3 and up. A major strength of this pool is that even if your family spans a wide range of ages, everyone can spend time in the spot they like and regroup from time to time.
