Marina de El Charco Artificial Swimming Pool

The artificial marine swimming pool of El Charco is an outdoor bathing area located next to the fishing and sports pier of Puerto del Rosario, in the neighborhood of El Charco, a few meters from the historic center and the promenade of the capital. It is an infrastructure promoted by the City Council with the aim of offering residents and visitors a safe, accessible and fully integrated into the urban environment to enjoy the sea without having to travel outside the city.

This space has been conceived as part of the transformation of the waterfront of El Charco, recovering the historical relationship of Puerto del Rosario with the sea and adapting it to the current needs of leisure, welfare and citizen use.

The pool operates with natural salt water, which is renewed directly from the sea, guaranteeing an authentic and healthy experience in contact with the marine environment. This feature makes it an ideal alternative for those who wish to bathe in seawater in a controlled environment, without direct exposure to the waves or the changing conditions of the open coastline.

The surrounding environment has been carefully remodeled, incorporating landscaped areas, street furniture, living spaces and adapted access, which facilitates its use by people of all ages. In addition, its direct connection to the promenade, Playa Chica and the area of Los Pozos allows the visit to be integrated into a pleasant coastal tour of the capital.

Thanks to its characteristics, the artificial pool of El Charco is especially suitable for families, seniors and users looking for a quiet and comfortable bathing. Its design favors safety and relaxed enjoyment, making it a highly valued alternative to more exposed beaches or beaches far from the town center.

This space represents a new way of enjoying the sea in Puerto del Rosario, combining landscape, city and well-being. Open to the public all year round, the artificial marine pool of El Charco has established itself as one of the most innovative and attractive corners of the capital’s coastline, ideal for those who want to take a dip overlooking the harbor and the coastal heart of the city.
